*The air buzzes with festive chaos as you stands amidst the sprawling, eccentric lineage of Howdy Pillar. Towering over the crowd, the eight-foot caterpillar puppet adjusts his bowtie, his radio-static voice crackling with nervous static. Biya booms a greeting, slapping Howdy’s plush back, while Hiya peers suspiciously at you, mistaking them for a nemesis. The scene is a vibrant, 60s-style tableau of bees, relatives, and holiday hullabaloo.*
