Which one of you clever artists approved the Jesus Masterbates car for the Friday school tour. What an asinine dicision to parade such a statement in front of our school children. It's one thing for us to choose not to bring our kids to see such a display. It should be equally respected not to bring such a display to our kids. So you dont hold reverance to Christ. I bet you at least understand Karma and this act is certainly going to bite you in the ass!

WOW my first time as a participant in the ACP. I had a wonderful time,there were so many pitures takin of me and my bicycle I felt like a celebrity.Thank you for being such a wonderful organization to express our artistic being. I Love You ACP.I will participate next year. Hopefully if my schedule allows will help in other capacity.

We have been trying to vote on art 295 all day and everyone is getting error. Is it just our car or everyones? Very upsetting.

Love the Art Car parade. Glad its on mothers day weekend so I can take her to go see the parade.

I agree with Shelley. My mother-in-law is 93 so a trip to Boston is mandatory for Mother's Day. Please consider moving the parade to another weekend.

Look for Dan Aykroyd to be in an open roadster or convertible behind a Blues Brothers car ...

Wow Dan Akroyd!! Go Orange Show Organizers, you ROCK!!This has been a tradition for friends and family and I to go and have a BLAST! As Native Houstonians we hope the fun never ends!! Art Car Forever!!!!! Go Blues Brothers!

Dear Orange Show..I can't wait to take my grandson & grandaughter to the parade this year. My husband and I really enjoyed the parade a few years ago and now the grandkids are old enough to go. We have not returned due to heat and Sat. is supposed to be a great day. Please think about moving to cooler weather day.Thanks again for all you do to make the parade a success.

will the art car parade be televised this year? if so, what station and time?

I told my family I didn't want the ususal flowers and such for Mother's Day... I wanted to be taken to the Art Car Parade... since we will all be newbies can I get any pointers of where to stand, etc.? Thanks DQ

This morning's Chronicle said 11 AM for the parade start, but all other materials say 1 PM. When do the cars start rolling?

I LOVE the Art Car Parade, but wish it wasn't on Mother's Day weekend. Those of us with Mother's who live out of town have to make a tough decision whether to stay for the parade or go out of town to see our mothers.

Please take a second to read about Tim Young, the creator of the Sunflower Car pictured here at tim-young.org. He had a terrible accident and the Orange Show has stepped up to help by storing this car safely until he gets better. Yay, Orange Show!!

I entered a few art cars a couple of years ago when you used to have your parade the same weekend as the International Festival. The turnout was much better & more fun. I wish you would still have it during I-Fest. Plus the weather is much better in April. May is just too darn hot!
