While the Gila River Festival continued some activities on Sunday, many of the downtown Silver City ones took place in the afternoon, with the Monsoon Puppet Parade, into the evening with the street party, and topping off with the Time-Lapse Film Festival shown on the exterior of the Murray Hotel from Yankie Street.
