Parade Faces

These 24 parade faces were made for the Lotus World Music and Arts Festival held annually in Bloomington, Indiana. Four community organizations created the artwork for the parade, which has become a tradition at the popular fall festival. The racks hold the parade faces for festivalgoers to take them before embarking on a lively, music filled downtown procession.
