Using our lantern designs of parade's past, create your next great lantern! Then, bring it to our spectacular parade and let it shine bright. Drop-in anytime between 4 and 7pm to create a glowing lantern in this special workshop at Creative Alliance, then bring them to march in Baltimore’s only Great Halloween Lantern Parade and Festival in Patterson Park!
Once the sun sets, the magic begins. Myths, spirits, and legends converge in Patterson Park from lands beyond, bringing their mystic wonder to Baltimore. A majestic Alebrije presides over the stage as an ethereal Ouroboro watches over the festival grounds. Dragons, mythical creatures, ghouls, and spirit folk parade through Patterson Park surrounded by bright and beautiful music. Everyone is welcome to grab a lantern and march with thousands of neighbors, artists, musicians, and performers. Many more line the parade route to watch the delightful Great Halloween Lantern Parade winds through the night!!
El Día de los Muertos (Day of the Dead) is a Mexican celebration that honors deceased family members through a colorful and fun celebration.
El Día de los Muertos es una celebración Mexicana que rinde homenaje a los familiares fallecidos a través de una celebración colorida y divertida.
We can’t think of a better way to celebrate than opening all our doors, so you, your family, friends, and neighbors can dance, eat, create, and explore throughout the day! Get crafty with the Artesanas in the beautiful storefront classroom, watch cooking demonstrations from many countries in the teaching kitchen, and pop into a salsa, capoeira, or hip-hop lesson in the dance studio. The historic Patterson, with its bright and shiny refinished marquee, is also open! Listen to Sidewalk Serenades in the BUS stop, grab a cocktail in the Marquee Lounge, visit the exhibitions, and meet our NEW Resident Artists in their studios. There’s even free hot chocolate!
