of downtown and its buildings. This extensive public art project, organized by the Chicago Public Art Program , commemorates the city’s industrial history, while bringing a sense of community and beauty to Chicago’s citizens and tourists. In this “parade”, every cow is full of meaning as well as artistic value.

Bullfighting and bull runs by many people are recognized as the only Spanish culture in the world, and because of its importance it always begins on time. Still many people view it as a crime. Me being a foreigner I have first hand experience with different cultures. A long time ago in India’s ritual would be to hunt and kill the Indian
a cold December night, I was in charge of a float that will be in Kingsville’s Christmas parade. The past few month, my team and I worked on the cannon that was suppose to fire and make as much noise as possible. We did the calculation, we got the materials, and we put it all together. It was about 8 feet long and 4 inches wide. We tested the cannon for 2 days and found it to be what we needed for the parade. We painted the cannon red and put a white stripe of tape to make it look more like a candy

This scenario, which has been demonstrated throughout history in a real-life context, also formed a theme in Ball State’s 2016 production of Parade through the interactions between the fearful townspeople and the vilified Leo Frank. During the course of the show, the townspeople of Atlanta feel threatened when one of their own is found dead and unite against what they perceive to be a danger

While I finished up my character training, Disney made me a dancing dragonfly in Spectro Magic, a step above fur. Soon I was training to play the face characters Mary Poppins

are looking at the stars." -- Oscar Wilde One of the things that has always puzzled me is human nature, our joys, fears and madness. The very source of the painful cramps of the soul that we call sadness, and the source of the multicolor soft parade that we call happiness. Those feelings have been with us since we saw the light, and are going to be there until the dark and graceful death decides to cover the light of life with her soft wings. They shape everything that makes us, our face,
