The Loisaida Center hosted their 30th annual Loisaida Festival Community Parade and Pageant on May 28th, 2017 celebrating the shared history and culture of the Lower East Side neighborhood of New York City, known affectionately by local residents as “Loisaida”
This year a team of artists, puppeteers and street performers were invited to spend a one month residency at the center to create the puppets, masks and costumes which breathe life into the parade.
