The Handmade Parade is an bi-annual community event held the third Saturday in October.in Hillsborough. This year it will be Oct 19 . The event will commence in the afternoon and continue till dusk. The theme of the fifth year's parade will be The Waters of the Eno. The theme is meant to foster awareness of our natural resources and to celebrate them. With its headwaters in Orange County, the Eno River is an important part of our community. This year the sub theme is Flight of the Eno, with a concentration on real and mythical birds. Prior to the October event, there will be a series of public workshops, and parade artists will assist participants in creating their own masks, costumes and giant moving puppets.Workshops will be designed to include all ages and local ethnicities. They will also include music, and movement with an emphasis on street theater. We are continuing to hire other artists throughout the area to teach workshops and to perform. This year as in the last parade Jane Filer will be teaching an adult puppet making class. One of the first workshops is specifically designed as a free "leadership class". This is for community, church, business and school leaders, some of who will be invited and others who will sign up when they hear about the workshop's educational and creative opportunities for their constituencies. They then will return to their groups and teach them how to make masks, puppets or floats for the parade. A goal of this approach is to ensure that the parade includes participation by diverse and minority populations in Hillsborough and surrounding areas of Orange County. We will also be coordinating with after schools programs, summer camps and schools. In past years, this coordination has been working with the Ero River Association's summer camp to involve the children in making puppets for this parade. Group and family sub-themes will be encouraged, for example, six people creating a 12-foot-long snake. Children and parents will be encouraged to create together. The purpose of this outreach event is to foster community involvement in the arts through participation in every aspect. The informal atmosphere and hands-on character of the experience allows members of the community to work directly with creative people while gaining confidence in their own abilities. We are very pleased with the enormous response we had to our previous years workshops and final parade. In 2012 there were over 600 participants in the parade and over 2000 estimated in the audience. There is a natural exchange across cultures in this, artistic process. Parading their artistic creations in and around the Hillsborough town center before an appreciative audience links the people of Orange County to the act of creativity in the most rewarding and public way possible.
