Join us for Glass Street LIVE!
It’s time! This Saturday morning giant puppets will march up Glass Street in our kick-off Wayne-O-Rama Puppet Parade featuring artist Wayne White’s larger than life Civil War generals dancing alongside home-made puppets crafted by a wide mix of local artists and residents. It’s the perfect start for this year’s 3rd annual block party event, celebrating the creative life at play here, as the Glass House Collective is just that: the collective energy of artists, neighbors, and community partners dancing together to bring life back to Glass Street and Glass Street back to life.
DETAILS:
We’re excited that Glass Street LIVE coincides with both Wayne-O-Rama, the year long Chattanooga artist residency of Emmy award winning Wayne White, as well as the National Parks Service’s Centennial, allowing us the special opportunity to showcase Sherman Reservation, a 50 acre national park atop Glass Street, along the ridge. Along with free shuttle service throughout the day, provided by CARTA, visitors will be able to explore the new access trail that safely connects Glass Street to the park, where rangers will be offering Civil War historical tours at one-hour intervals: 1PM, 2PM, and 3PM.
