“Enchanted Forest” was the theme of the 2019 Carnival celebration in the LGBTQ resort town of Provincetown, Massachusetts on Thursday and tourists and townies alike turned out the most enchanting lewks for this year's festival.
The parade's grand marshal was comic, actress (Orange is the New Black), and owner of Provincetown's new “supper club” music venue ‘The Club', Lea DeLaria. Also appearing the parade was a section of Gilbert Baker's 1.25-mile-long rainbow flag brought to Provincetown from Key West. There were too many fairies, gnomes, tree spirits, forest rangers, cub scouts, satyrs, centaurs, butterflies, trolls, storybook characters and mushrooms to count, but here are a few of our favorites. We'll be adding more — so come back.
