A long wall of lanterns by 701 CCA’s artist in residence Janke Klompmaker is part of 701 CCA’s current exhibition, Dadadesque, and you can get your hands on one of them during the Artista Vista lantern parade. Grab a lantern and join the parade as Klompmaker leads a group performance for and during Artista Vista. Also bring drums, horns, tambourines, flutes, whistles and other noise makers to help create the sound track as the parade makes it way through the Vista. Starting at the railroad tunnel at Lady and Lincoln, the lanterns will light up as nighttime falls, and the parade will snake through the Vista and end at the point of departure, but not until the homestretch takes it all the way through the tunnel from Taylor to Lady.
