Right up until the last minute the weather was very wet but the rain stopped for the most part once the procession got under way.

Most members of the Carnival Band were lit up like Christmas trees.

The evening procession circling several blocks in the heart of the DTES promises to be a visual treat. This project promotes local art galleries, public art and artists based in the community.

The procession sets off from Pender and Carrall Sts at 7:00 p.m.
