The Marche du Can Rouge Morton’s salt girl costume is coming together. 8 days till #MarcheDuNainRouge
Being extra judgey watching DragRace tonight after buying loads of glitter foam paper, sequins, fishing line and a foam wig. 8 days till #MarcheDuNainRouge
Late to figuring out our #MarcheduNainRouge costumes, I think the girl will be a salt canister and partner will be an Andy Warhol soup can, should I join them in Marche du Can Rouge as a can of hairspray? Or do I reprise Marche du Pain Rouge?? Really mourning the loss of JoAnne Fabrics right now…
I went to the Marche du Nain Rouge parade in Detroit and decided to do some quick sketching.

Scenes from Detroit, Michigan's annual Marche du Nain Rouge parade! Every year, Detroit celebrates it's very own, ornery as hell and very opinionated mythological being, the Red Dwarf of Detroit!

People in costume. Two are in 18th century garb and passing out cake. Another has a homemade red monster mask with sharp teeth and colorful feathery headdress.
A wacky car with the colorful driver sitting on the roof, smoke billowing from the front, as people on tall bicycles ride beside it.
A gang of bicycle riders on crazy bikes, some tall, some short, one elongated. A sign says "Detroit Freak Bike."
Black women in fanciful outfits with tall headdress's. Music was playing from a truck.
A few photos from Nain Rouge 2025 in downtown Detroit.

Every year there’s a street party in Detroit called Marche du Nain Rouge to herald the return of spring and shout out the nain who is said to bring doom to the city historically. It’s been a way to share love and critiques of this storied city. We reprised our robot costumes. #MarcheduNainRouge

A person holds a sign saying "Sometimes you gotta burn shit down".

It's the Marche du Nain Rouge this weekend. Have fun at the parade, Detroit deserves a party. Maybe just stop blaming your friendly neighborhood demon-man for the curses that come mostly from north of 8 Mile. #nainrouge #marchedunainrouge #detroit #demon
The Marche du Nain Rouge, Detroit's version of the Mardi Gras, is this Sunday in Midtown Detroit. Always a fun event to photograph. #marchedunainrouge #detroit #photography #photojournalism
