Arts in the Alley Parade brings “Happiness” to Grove City Please join us for the 2012 Arts in the Alley Parade. “Happiness is…” will be the theme for this year’s parade, kicking off the annual Arts in the Alley festival on Saturday, Sept. 15 at 9:30 a.m. The parade is hosted by The Grove City Area Chamber of Commerce in partnership with the Grove City Girls’ Club. The Grand Marshall of the parade will be Joy Schmidt from the Little Theatre Off Broadway. The parade will start, rain or shine, at the corner of Southwest Boulevard and Broadway. It will head south and then east on Columbus Street, where it will finally disperse at Park Street Intermediate School. Come see marching bands, floats representing businesses, elected officials, club officers, teams, entertainers, mascots and many more show variations of what happiness

is to them. Last year’s parade was the largest we’ve ever had and we hope that this year’s will be even better! Following the parade, the Arts in the Alley festival will take place from 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. and continue on Sunday, Sept. 16 from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. This year’s festival will feature over 100 juried artists and crafters as well as various types of music including show choirs, jazz, blues, classic rock, folk, gospel, country and much more. You can find these events in the following areas: Fine Arts and Crafts will be in the Municipal Building, the Youth Art Show will be in the Safety Building, and the Quilt Show will be at the St. John’s Evangelical Lutheran Church.
