Published: Friday, July 2nd, 2010
Professional and amateur photographers are invited to submit their
best photographs of the Occasional Pasadena Doo Dah Parade in a
contest. All photographs will be exhibited at McGinty’s Gallery at
the End of the World in Altadena 6 p.m.-midnight July 17, during
which trophies will be awarded in a number of categories with the
“Spirit of Doo Dah” as top prize.
Gallery visitors to the “Doo Dah Parade Photo & Memorabilia” exhibit
will enjoy an evening of entertainment and fun. In addition to the
photos on display, you can view royal gowns, portraits and more.
Chico’s Bail Bonds will treat you to blues, while The Subs will keep
the beat with a repertoire ranging from folk and rock to R&B and
dance. Reigning royalty Queen Erica will serve up some sweet guitar
licks, Queen Naughty Mickie will awe you with her sword dance and
Queen Skittles will be offering her talents to take your photo with
the Doo Dah denizen of your choice. Also, throughout the event, you
are invited to bid on a selection of silent auction items.
Proceeds from the event and auction benefit the Light Bringer
Project, a non-profit organization based in Pasadena. LBP’s annual
Doo Dah Parade and Pasadena Chalk Festival help support its art and
art education programs, including Room 13, Expressing Feelings
Through Art and the Ad and Design Academy. To learn more, visit
