What is this “FestiFools” thing?

If you’re not already familiar with FestiFools, you can get a sense of what we’re about by watching some videos on the YouTube FestiFools channel, reading a few good blog entries, and diving into the photographically refreshing flickr FestiFools group pool.

NOW is the time for all Fools to come to the aid of the [street] party. WE WANT YOU!

About us

FestiFools is a non-profit production of the START Project, a University of Michigan Lloyd Hall Scholars Program initiative. FestiFools brings students and community volunteers together to create unique public art that is free and accessible to everyone. Specifically, we make huge-mongous papier-mâché puppets and march them around downtown Ann Arbor on a Sunday early in April. If that sounds like your speed, then dig deeper:
