Next Sunday 4/28 we’ll be parading down the Third Street Promenade in Santa Monica. This is what it’s going to look like. More info here. And there will be prizes including a pair of tickets to a behind the scenes tour of the Jim Henson Company Hollywood lot!
All this month we’ve been celebrating the first-ever citywide LA Puppet Fest and we’ve been behind the scenes helping to organize it as part of mobilization and education efforts. The culminating event is a parade on the 3rd Street Promenade on 4/28. Your family (and your puppets) are invited to march with us! RSVP here.
Our puppets marched on Washington to show support for public media and today President Barack Obama’s Budget includes federal funding for it! Tell Congress how important public media is to you at http://bit.ly/YM2Yca.
Puppets are heading back to DC! Yes, we are going to be marching in parallel to the Presidential Inauguration Parade on 1/21/13 starting at 2:30PM. Meet in the park at 500 Pennsylvania Avenue NW on the south side of the street. You can find us that day using the free Million Puppet March app that you can find in iTunes and Google Play
See you there!
Captain Lavender thanks the major contributors to the Million Puppet March. And we thank you too!
Do you know the inspiration for the cover art for “String Along”? You can get the song as a perk in our Indiegogo Campaign or Download it.
And check out the fun music video of the lyrics.
Here’s just some of my favorite photos from the march. I took over 100 photos…had a lot of fun. The response was great even after the march while walking around the Capitol with friends dressed as muppets, though some people had no idea what it was for, but liked us anyway.
