Figurines and clay background tiles installed at Holden Village, near Chelan, Washington
These figurines were made by many different participants during the summer of 2012 to celebrate the 50th anniversary of Holden Village. Each week the village held a parade, after which we sculpted figurines based on photos of people in the parade.

Drummers line up for a return trip at one of the real life parades. In addition to commemorating the parade in clay, I was also one of the parade organizers, building giant puppets and teaching stilt walking.
