Flaming Creatures Parade III October 18th!
Join us for an illuminated promenade through the greenery and coastline of Governor’s Island. This parade honors New York’s native species and the final season of Earth Matters’ urban farm project. We invite you to play and get in touch with your inner creature. The route is ADA accessible.
The incredible Laura Ortman will open the parade at Liggett Terrace as the sun sets. Melodies of birds, crickets, and waves will accompany our stroll.
Procession starts at 6pm! Please arrive early to get in costume and grab a luminary prop to carry. You are welcome to come dressed in costume. Please meet on the lawn in front of 407A Colonels Row. You can’t miss us!
Volunteers as parade marshals are welcome. Show up even earlier in the day to help assemble lanterns and hang out with us! Stay afterwards with us if you’d like, the last ferry off the island is at 11.
Third Saturdays at Governors Island is hosting a variety of events on the lawn preceding our parade starting at 2:30! Link in bio if you wanna check out the programming.
