Daphne residents interested in taking part in the upcoming Spirit of Daphne Centennial Parade will have two chances this week to audition and learn more about the event.
The Spirit of Daphne Centennial Parade Workshop will be held at the Nicholson Center for the Arts, located at 1370-1398 Captain O’Neal Drive in Daphne. Sessions are scheduled for Friday, July 24, from 5 to 7 p.m., and Saturday, July 25, from 10 a.m. to noon.
Those interested in auditioning for a role in the parade are asked to register in advance at www.daphneal.com/parade.
Community parades like this one typically draw local performers, civic groups, school organizations and area businesses looking to take part in a shared celebration. Workshops held ahead of the event give participants a chance to learn choreography, float logistics and other details before the parade steps off.
The Nicholson Center for the Arts has served as a hub for community arts programming along Daphne’s Eastern Shore, hosting workshops, rehearsals and creative events throughout the year. Residents with questions about the parade or the audition process are encouraged to reach out through the city’s official parade registration page.
