Today the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade is part of our American culture and Thanksgiving traditions. While not the longest running Thanksgiving parade, it is certainly the most popular. This class explores the reasons for the initial parade; the origins as a Christmas pageant beginning in 1924; the creative minds behind the floats and balloons; and the evolution of the parade through the decades embracing cultural icons along the way.
Instructor: Christina Smith
