THE WORLD WILL BE WATCHING....HOW SHOULD WE BEHAVE? LET'S HAVE A PARADE!!
“Disrupting the Meta-narrative:
an Opening (and Glowing) Hearts Ceremonies Parade”
WHEN: Valentines Day - Sun Feb 14th
WHERE: Grandview Park, Commercial Dr
WHAT TIME: Starting at 2pm...
WHY:because everyone deserves a parade it's fun for the whole family
because
we can't afford $1000 a ticket for the official opening because we want
to play too because we don't need Olympic-sanctioned-Vanoc-sponsored
“free-speech zones”to gather together in public because we want to give
the world a special East Van welcome because we want to include the
unincluded because we need creative outlets to express alternative
voices
because we choose action over inaction
to disrupt the olympic meta-narrative
to
get to know our neighbours better because it's fun to dress up because
even though we lost the vote against the olympics, we didn't lose our
passion, our creativity, our dignity our right to free speech, our
desire to play...because reverence and irreverence are not
irreconcilable because it's valentines day and it's all about love
DRESS CODE: mis-matched socks, untidy hair, huge smiles, bright colours, silly neck ties...
