The Light Bringer Project has two big fund-raising events every year. One is the Occasional Pasadena Doo Dah Parade and the other is the Pasadena Chalk Festival. Both reflect what Light Bringer Project is all about-- art and community. The organization's projects focus on art, art education, art therapy and more for the community, but they depend on the community as well, for support and participation.

Here's where you come in~ make plans this weekend to attend the Pasadena Chalk Festival.

10 a.m.-7 p.m. Saturday and Sunday, June 20 and 21

Paseo Colorado, 280 E. Colorado Blvd., Pasadena

In addition to awesome street paintings, there will be children's activities, music and food. You can purchase canvas works by some of the artists and 11 a.m.-5 p.m. Sunday, you can also enjoy the Pasadena Police Classic Car Show.

And be sure to attend the awards presentation at 7 p.m. Sunday, as 32nd Occasional Pasadena Doo Dah Queen Skittles will be handing out the award for Most Humorous mural.

Now carry on, as you were,

Queen Mickie

I am a features staff writer for the San Gabriel Valley Newspaper Group, and after seven auditions resulting in five consecutive years spent as a runner-up, I finally, rightfully, became the Queen of the 31st Occasional Pasadena Doo Dah Parade 2007/2008. I love rock n' roll, motorcycles, swords and sushi. I hate sitting still. Read my blog regularly to bring some excitement into your otherwise dull existence. Oh, and you may stop kneeling now and carry on -- as you were... ~ Follow me on Twitter @ Mickieszoo ~
