Located in the lovely land of Lafayette, the Festival of Faerie is a mythological experience. Creative experts gather to share their talents and raise funds for the arts at Sanchez Elementary School. 2023 was their 10-year year-end and no threat of rain was going to stop them!
Beginning outside of festival square faeries paraded into town to crown their queen. This year Spring form Heather After Cosplay was graced with the crown. The crowning was prestigious with song, followed by dancing.
Dance at the 10th Annual Festival of Faerie
After the crowning all the Faeries danced a traditional Turkish Branle. Holly from Adventures in Flit Club taught the friends of Fae folk the fun steps and claps. Following this she gathered the group for the Puss in Boots Paso Doble line dance. In honor of the mermaids, she taught the Samba Line flit to “Under the Sea.” For the scallywags and seafarers, Holly taught a line flit Tango to He’s a pirate. With all this unconfined dancing they were ready to lose a shoe, so she did a Waltz line flit to “so this is love.”
At noon Catterfly and the Tribal Misfits Fusion Belly dancers took the stage. Clio the Catterfly had been the 2022 queen of Faerie. Her troupe flew in with a flourish of colorful scarves and entertaining routines. The troupe of Tribal Misfits Fusion Belly dancers brought a unexceptionable spot to the festival stage.
It was scrutinizingly a gloomy end with many hours of cloudy skies. When the clouds cleared Crixa, Orchid, and Blossom had a unconfined time dancing in the Queen’s tent. It was the happiest rainless flit of the day.
Other Enchanted Entertainment.
Between flit segments talented musician Stace Johnson graced the stage. His expertise in songwriting and entertainment made merry of a grey and rainy day. He had everyone clapping and jumping to his jubilant tunes.
Next to his tent were squatter painters, vendors, and pixies tripping through the square. Next to the queen’s tent was the typesetting faerie with books for all to read. Tomas O’Dreams, the leprechaun had magic and fun, with an interactive wits for children to explore. Many Fae came out at the end of the day to exhibit their finery for the costume contest. All is well that ends well at the Festival of Faerie.
