Children ages 2-10 are invited to participate in our annual Storybook Character Parade!
This exciting Character Parade is part of the Fort Bend Art Festival, and features all different kinds of children’s literary characters. Participating children dressed as their favorite storybook characters will make their march around LaCenterra at Cinco Ranch (just next to the Cinco Ranch Branch Library). The parade begins with a helicopter fly over & Deputies from Ft. Bend County Constable's & Ft.

Prizes will be awarded for the top 3 "Cutest Costumes" & most "Outstanding Group" after the parade at the Awards Ceremony!
