This year's Grand Marshal will be LaRussell, one of the most important artists of this generation, and one of Vallejo's own! He has an amazing following and supports independent artists without requiring them to give up ownership of their art. With a focus on building a community that is all inclusive, LaRussell allows the people to decide what his contributions are worth to them. He allows people to pay what they want for shows, merch, music, and all other commodities. His movement is not free, it's priceless.
