Arts / Parade Committee Meeting – Open To All Adults

Date: June 17th from 7PM to 9PM

Location: Lotus Firebay

🤠 Calling All Arts Cowboys, Makers, Dreamers & Community Builders 🎨✨

Help spear the vibe of Lotus Festival 2026.

The Lotus Arts Committee is officially opening its doors for a new season of collaboration, creativity, and community-powered artmaking, and ALL are welcome. Whether you’re an artist, builder, painter, musician, costume maker, volunteer, storyteller, lantern carrier, or just someone who wants to make something beautiful with other people… there’s a place for you here.

This year we’ll gather for:
✨ Open conversations about arts in the community
✨ Planning and building the Lotus Fest Parade
✨ Arts Village activations and interactive experiences
✨ Weekly collaborative art projects we create together

The major collaborative project led by KP this season will be the Lanterns of Luminaria, helping light the path of Lotus Fest weekend with community-made lanterns, movement, and glowing art. We’ll also host a community Flag Project with guest leaders and additional collaborative builds throughout the season.

No pressure. No experience required. Come weekly, check in monthly, or volunteer once. Truly all hands on deck are welcome and needed.
