The Procession of the Species is back for Earth Day Durango on April 20th, parading down Main Ave to Buckely Park from 10:30-11am.

This year's theme, "Planet vs Plastics," is a call to action to fight plastic pollution. So get creative and design a costume that embodies the beauty of nature or the dangers of plastic. Whether you're a majestic hawk, a playful otter, or a swirling vortex of plastic waste, let your imagination run wild! ♻️

Save the date: April 20th, 2024! Mark your calendars and start planning your costumes now. More information coming soon.
