The Krewe is absolutely delighted to be part of FLUX this year! We are thrilled to be hosted by Elliott Street Pub and in cahoots with the Atlanta Bicycle Coaltion! Count on walking or riding in the FLUX Lantern Art Parade on September 30th!
"FLUX 2011 will also offer more opportunities for the community to participate—before, during, and after the main event. The Krewe of the Grateful Gluttons is inviting people to join their lantern parade, and lanterns can be made at home or at one of the Krewe’s lantern making workshops at Elliott Street Pub in September (11th and 24th)."

Dunedin’s first Life & Light Lantern Parade & Festival was a terrific success! Two beautiful festival days were crazy busy with lantern making and our procession went off despite a formidable Florida thunderstorm. Dunedin is fortunate to have an inspired powerhouse of an arts advocate in Tina Marie Avillla of www.casatinas.com
