The Parade kicks off two full days of exciting programming designed to encourage kids to work with the arts in a focused yet fun way including: Chalk On The Walk, Jewelry Making, Recycled Ornaments, Masks, and Drum Making workshops, face painting, and more.

"Hot Times has become the largest, totally volunteer, community based Arts event in Central Ohio. The event continues to provide a forum for community and cultural interaction and understanding, and provides a venue in which people can be bound together as a greater, cross-cultural community by developing and stimulating the development of an appreciation for the Arts." ~ www.shortnorth.org

This event is part of the Hot Times Community Music and Arts Festival.
