2025 Interdependence Parade in Berea!
A Community Celebration of Creativity, Connection & Collective Joy!

On Friday, July 5th, Berea will come alive with the Interdependence Parade—a joyful, people-powered celebration of community, creativity, and what we can build together.

We’re forming parade crews now, and you’re invited to join! You don’t need to be an artist—just bring your curiosity, your spirit, and whatever makes you feel most you. Whether you want to help design and/or work on costumes, carry a puppet, dance down the street, or simply dress up and walk in unity, there’s a spot for you in this vibrant walking exhibit!

Not sure how to get started? We’ve got you covered. Throughout June, we’ll be hosting Creative Incubators—fun, free workshops where you can come build costumes, flags, banners, and props with guidance from local artists and community organizers. These are perfect spaces to meet your crew, get inspired, and bring your ideas to life.

Stay tuned for parade crew sign-ups and workshop dates—coming soon!

Let’s celebrate our interdependence with bold colors, big ideas, and a whole lot of heart.
Join us—and be part of something unforgettable.

This project is supported with funding from the Kentucky Historical Society. the Kentucky Arts Council’s America250KY celebration.
