Ebb & Flow Kinetic Art Parade and River Arts Celebration

t’s time to go with the Flow! What is Ebb & Flow? It’s a parade, a celebration, an art walk, a permanent sculpture, environmental walking tours, temporary sculptures, dance, music, food, a party, all in honor of the San Lorenzo River and the Tannery Arts Center.

Ebb & Flow includes:

– River tours starting this March, in partnership with the Coastal Watershed Council and Natural History Museum

– First Friday downtown community art-making and river critter scavenger hunt on June 2nd

– A River Nightwalk after First Friday, featuring a naturalist talk about habits of nocturnal river animals and LED-lit aerial dancing off the Soquel Street Bridge

– The Kinetic Art Parade and River Arts Celebration on June 3rd: a free, family-friendly full day with an art parade down the Riverwalk ending in a celebration at the Tannery Arts Center, featuring music, dance, art-making, a kinetic art parade, and terrific fun, all with a river theme

Come be a part of Ebb & Flow!

Want to build kinetic art–art that moves–for the parade?

All creators, builders, burners, assemblers, and anyone else who feels inspired, are invited to build a kinetic art entry and join the Ebb & Flow Kinetic Art Parade on June 3rd, 2017.

Go big and wild with a team of friends or pull your kids in a wagon with pinwheels and whirligig hats – all are welcome. Or just come walk in the parade as it moves down the Santa Cruz Riverwalk!

The parade begins on the Santa Cruz Riverwalk next to Kaiser Permanente Arena and continues to the Tannery Arts Center. Registration check-in and lining up starts at 11 AM and the parade starts at noon.

The parade leads to the Tannery Arts Center where the Ebb & Flow River Arts Celebration begins at 1:30.
