Hosted by Dream Community, The Jane Goodall Institute of Taiwan and Neihu Community College, 2008 Hope Parade is to celebrate the art and culture in Taiwan. As the second year of the parade, the topic of this year is the Hope of Taiwan, demonstrating every wonderful and diverse part of this country. Participate teams include aboriginal schools, local communities all over Taiwan, various groups and universities. I think this event also shows how international Taiwan has become, for all the great artwork and performance the participants presented and the various nationality they possess. The most impressive is that some senior participants were more devoted to this event, they even dressed very exaggerated and acted very, very funny.
台灣真的是越來越國際化了,連原汁原味的嘉年華遊行活動都出現了。去年這個嘉年華第一次舉辦,任職珍古德協會的學姐當時曾告知,但因時間不配合而作罷,今年有空了,也換了相機,當然是要去體驗一下的。
看到照片,有些朋友問我為什麼會有這場活動,世界夢想嘉年華是由汐止夢想基金會、國際珍古德教育及保育協會和內湖社區大學所共同舉辦的,今年是第二屆。夢想基金會和珍古德協會在之前曾經分別舉辦過嘉年華遊行,夢想基金會旨在推動社區藝術文化活動;而珍古德協會則是以推廣環境、動植物保育教育為職志,再加上重視社區營造的內湖社大,就成就了這個以玩樂、藝術為主軸的有趣活動。主辦單位也分別邀來嘉年華遊行的世界達人們,除了舉辦藝術工作坊,打造最有創意的遊行行頭,也有專業的表演藝術工作者,教導小朋友們打森巴鼓,以及教舞者們跳舞,當然,正式遊行時,他們也都是活動的焦點啦,除了讓演出水準大為提升,也讓這個活動更加的專業囉。
而個人認為,玩得最開心的其實不是小朋友們,而是那些頭髮花白的阿公阿媽們,看他們那些不計形象的裝扮與演出,真是令人感覺原來台灣的長輩們也是這麼愛現的呢~
