It was an honor to walk with Governor Andrew Cuomo and Mayor Bill deBlasio as the Parade showed New York its vibrance and resilience. There was an atmosphere of LOVE not fear as we honored those who passed, by embracing life in its fullest.
Blue Lady has created costumes and parade groups for over a decade for the NYC Halloween Parade, known as the nation's most wildly creative public participatory event. This year's theme Cabinet of Curiosities, or unlikely combinations like the Figi Mermaid (Half Monkey/Half Fish) inspired Blue Lady's two Elemental creations of Half Water/Half Fire and Half Air/Half Earth.
Joining forces with Maracatu New York, a Brazilian drum ensemble made up of over 60 drumming revelers, we played, danced, and lifted spirits with over 1.5 million New Yorkers, including a friendly cow!
