Provincetown's Annual Carnival Celebration Seeks Artists & Businesses To Participate In The 2023 'Land of Toys' Parade

Provincetown Commons

<h2>The Provincetown Business Guild (PBG) has announced the launch of the Carnival Parade Artists Matchmaking Program for this year’s Carnival Parade, which will occur on August 17, 2023. </h2>Are you an artist? This is your opportunity to get hired for your talents by registering to be involved with the program for 2023 which is focused on pairing local and regional artists with local businesses to create floats and other visuals for the annual Carnival celebration!A﻿re you a business owner? Join us to learn more about how you can get involved by sponsoring an artist to create a float or behalf of your business or organization as part of the 45th Annual Carnival Parade! More details are right here: In 2022 the PBG piloted a new initiative to pair Provincetown artists with local businesses to create floats for the annual Carnival Parade.“We were looking for a way to inspire creativity for the businesses participating in the Carnival Parade, especially for the first parade in three years,” says Trevor Pittinger, Associate Director of the PBG.“Producing a float for Carnival takes a lot of time, energy, and resources, things that are not always easy for Ptown businesses to come by. This program made perfect sense to involve and engage Provincetown artists, pay them for their work, and help ensure the creativity of the parade truly represents Ptown as the oldest continuously running artist colony.”The pilot program was a great success, with five sponsored floats created from partnerships between businesses and local artists. This year’s program officially launches on Sunday, February 26th, with an information session at The Commons from 4:00 PM to 6:00 PM. Artists matched with businesses in 2022 will be present to speak about their experience and answer questions.Artists will assist businesses with creative visibility and interpretation of the 2023 Carnival theme, Land of Toys. Businesses that participate can choose from a self-propelled or a large float. Both levels come with carnival float concept and creation by an artist, registration, insurance, and audio/visual outfitting.
