Fremont 2006 Solstice Parade

2006 Fremont Solstice Parade and Nude Ride

06/17/2006

The Fremont Arts Council in Seattle produces local celebrative art events including the Fremont Summer Solstice Parade, Trolloween, the Feast of the Winter Solstice, and the May Day Maypole Dance.
The Fremont Summer Solstice Celebration is an outpouring of creativity and community, as summer arrives in Seattle. In our workshop, artists and people who love art come together to create beautiful and memorable objects and performances.
The 18th annual parade began this year at noon in downtown Fremont. At Gasworks Park, the day culminated with the rebirth of the sun through the grand spectacle of the Solstice Pageant, a community collaboration involving hundreds of artists, actors, dancers, musicians, and... us, the rest of the world :-)
Below are this year's photographs

Also, here are photographs from the 2005 Fremont Fair and Parade.
