MAC Halloween Parade

The volunteer witches of the Marion Art Center have been brewing up plans for their annual Halloween Parade around the town on Thursday, October 31. Costumed characters of all ages are invited to join in for this fun family event. Participants should meet in front of the Marion Music Hall (we’ll line up on Cottage Street) at 4:00pm. Under the direction of Hannah Moore, the Sippican Elementary School drummers will lead the parade of witches and princesses, goblins and ghouls, wild animals, and spooky spirits. The parade route will head south on Front Street, up Main Street, north onto Spring Street and back down Cottage to the Music Hall. Don’t forget to pop by the Music Hall at the end of the parade route for your treat bags, made with love by the good witches of the MAC. “Teal Pumpkin” goodie bags are available for those with allergies or food sensitivity.

This year, the First Congregational Church, at the corner of Main and Front streets, Marion, is planning to have a photo opportunity on the church lawn with a harvest display with hay bales, mums, and pumpkins, after the MAC Halloween parade has concluded and treat bags are collected. Pets are welcome for their photos as well and there will be water and dog treats available. All are welcome.
