PROCESSION OF LITTLE ANGELS

The Little Angels is a procession designed for children, held the day before the All Souls Procession.  Children participate in art activities such as wing-making and decorating, face painting, sugar skull decorating, story telling, and theatre.  Finale workshops are offered so that the children can participate in their own Procession/Finale-Spectacle.  Angels on stilts lead the children on a procession around the Downtown public square to the finale stage area, where artists present a live performance-spectacle.  Last year, the inaugural year, we had over 500 children and parents participate.
