Washington St.
Ann Arbor, Michigan

FestiFools is simply wild about celebrating our upcoming 5th anniversary by introducing you to FoolMoon, the latest and most thrilling addition to our April FestiFools weekend! This sublime moonlight event will feature a magical procession of hand-made illuminated sculptures carried by dancing teams of merrymakers as they thread their way downtown to Washington St., west of Main, in the heart of Ann Arbor. Pageant participants and revelers alike may enjoy delicious treats and spirits (at their favorite Washington Street restaurants) while enjoying a unique street-sized, shimmering, shadow puppet performance.

Local artists and community members will create zillions of glowing handmade sculptural lanterns in preparation for this spectacular illuminated extravaganza. Free drop-in lantern making workshops for FoolMoon will be held every Sunday in March from 10am-5pm at Workantile on Main Street. FoolMoon is destined to become one of Ann Arbor’s most unique public art events bringing the entire community together for a springtime eve of moonlit beauty, spectacle, and celebration.

Fool Moon, the newest addition to the April Fools FestiFools weekend festivities, will take place on April Fools Night, Friday, April 1st, 2011, from Dusk to Midnight.

To become a special FoolMoon participant/sponsor please contact FestiFools organizers for details (before the next FoolMoon) at http://festifools.org

FestiFools and FoolMoon is part of a planned effort to spotlight Ann Arbor as a vibrant place to create, live, entertain and do business. (This year’s 5th Annual FestiFools celebration of giant hand-made Puppets will take place on Main Street from 4-5pm on Sunday, April 3rd, 2011)
