Sponsored by Mexic-Arte Museum, the annual Viva la Vida Festival – Austin’s largest and longest-running Dia de los Muertos event – features a parade, a street festival, education activities, and art exhibits.

More info – http://mexic-artemuseumevents.org/viva-la-vida-2017/

The set-up time for the parade will be from 9 a.m. – 12 p.m., with the parade running from 12 p.m. – 1 p.m.

Costumed participants will gather on 5th Street between I-35 Northbound Frontage Road and Waller Street.

The procession will march down 6th Street and end at 4th Street and Congress Avenue.

For the best opportunity to take portraits BEFORE the parade starts, the NAPfS club will meet-up at the staging location between 10:30 – 11 a.m.

Afterwards, we’ll gather for lunch to relax, share stories, and check out everyone’s images.

This NAPfS Field Trip is an excellent opportunity for you to make photos to submit to the November 2017 Faces of Man theme competition.

Paid parking is available at nearby garages and lots.

The October 2017 Viva la Vida Field Trip is being lead by Russ Morris.

Ask questions and please RSVP via the NAPƒS Facebook event page.

Please check back for details as the parade route and staging area are subject to change.
