Procession of the Species April 26, 2008

The Procession of the Species is a joyous, spontaneous artistic pageant where community members celebrate their relationships with each other and with the natural world.

Created by the community for the community, the Procession program facilitates seven weeks of art, music, and dance workshops that inspire personal understanding of and local action for wildlife protection.

Then on Procession day, residents don their creative expressions and proceed through the streets of Olympia in masks and costumes. Carrying banners, windsocks, and giant puppets, they participate in a cultural exchange honoring the awe and splendor of the natural world.

There are just three Procession rules
The three rules inspire, nourish, and protect the Procession's cultural evolution of imagination, creation, and sharing.
No written words • No pets • No motorized vehicles
