This year Wheaton and Montgomery County communities celebrate the 6th Annual Wheaton Arts Parade & Festival on Sunday, September 25 from 10am-5pm.
Artists, friends, neighbors, and community groups "Parade the Triangle" through Wheaton's town center to a festival in the Marian Fryer Town Plaza on Reedie Drive. Click here to see the parade route.
It's free!
VOLUNTEERS WILL HELP PRODUCE OUR 6th ANNIVERSARY EVENT! This will be the biggest and best yet!
We need volunteers of all ages who can help with both the Parade and Festival. From staffing the parade route, helping with floats, helping stage managers, and assisting artists unload and set up their exhibits. Volunteers also will help artists conduct kids arts-making activities. Click here to see festival map.
Volunteers are needed as early as 7am and as late as 6pm and will volunteer for shifts of at least 4 hours. Volunteers for at least one full shift will receive a T-shirt and $5 coupon toward the purchase of food or soft drink.
Volunteers must attend one 2 hr orientation on either September 17 or 18 at 2pm. SSL hours will be provided for orientation. Orientation will be held at the WAP Gallery at the Westfield Wheaton Shopping Center. https://goo.gl/maps/5MixHHQaYCeuGKCZ6
