Hats Across The Row Parade and Party Tomorrow

/by

Hats Across the Row will take over 16th and 17th Aves. S. tomorrow (4/17) with a parade and party.

At 3 p.m. watch the parade on Music Row featuring Kerry Collins and his motorcycle gang, marching bands, antique Mini Coopers, and an array of stilt walkers, hula hoopers and Minnie Pearl look-a-likes. At 4 p.m. come to the after party at Major Bob Music (1111 17th Ave. S.).

Hosted by co-chairs Ree Buchanan and Tinti Moffat, the campaign honoring the iconic Minnie Pearl recognizes the connection between Nashville’s music industry and The Minnie Pearl Cancer Foundation and the impact cancer has had on the lives of so many along the Row.
