费城华埠木偶大游行与嘉年华11月11日举行 呼吁街道安全连接社区
费城华埠“社区连接”木偶大游行与嘉年华11月11日举行，游行中午12时从10街与瓦恩街出发，前往富兰克林广场，随后举行下午1时至4时的嘉年华活动。活动由Spiral Q木偶剧团与费城华埠发展公司及华埠各机构、社区成员合作举办，以艺术与游行呼吁华埠的交通安全。每天都有儿童与长者穿过瓦恩街快速路与瑞斯街前往学校与公园，组织者表示，游行旨在为邻里夺回街道、连接公园、庆祝文化。今年秋季，Spiral Q一直与华埠发展公司合作策划游行与嘉年华，并在日托中心与长者中心举办讲故事与艺术制作工作坊。活动与华埠缝合计划（Chinatown Stitch）相呼应，该计划拟在下沉的676号州际公路上方建设新公园，并改善瓦恩街从9街至宽街路段的交通安全。费城市交通部门10月底表示，该项目正在推进设计与社区参与。
Philadelphia Chinatown Puppet Parade and Carnival Held Nov. 11, Calling for Safer Streets and Community Connection
Philadelphia Chinatown's "Community Connections" puppet parade and carnival took place on November 11, with the parade setting off at noon from 10th and Vine streets to Franklin Square, followed by a carnival from 1 to 4 p.m. The event was organized by Spiral Q Puppet Theater together with the Philadelphia Chinatown Development Corporation, Chinatown institutions and community members, using art and a parade to call for traffic safety in Chinatown.
Children and seniors cross the Vine Street Expressway and Ridge Avenue every day on their way to schools and parks. Organizers said the parade aims to reclaim the streets for the neighborhood, connect the parks and celebrate culture. Throughout the fall, Spiral Q has worked with the Chinatown Development Corporation on the parade and carnival, and held storytelling and art-making workshops at daycare and senior centers.
The event echoes the Chinatown Stitch plan, which would build a new park over the sunken Interstate 676 and improve traffic safety on Vine Street from 9th Street to Broad Street. Philadelphia's transportation department said in late October that the project is moving forward with design and community engagement.
