Chantelle Rytter is a parade artist best known for founding the Atlanta BeltLine Lantern Parade in 2010 with the Krewe of the Grateful Gluttons, of which she is the proud Captain. Chantelle has created a family of annual lantern parades based in community participation over the last 13 years in Sandy Springs, Midtown, Hapeville, and Hilton Head Island. Chantelle grew up in Baltimore and studied integrative arts at Penn State University. She lived in New Orleans for ten years and fell under the spell of parade culture and the notion that creative play can be a civic gift. You're invited to march every parade: www.weirdgonepro.com
