A handful of islanders wearing full-face Guy Fawkes masks demonstrated in the streets of Eastsound on Nov. 5.

The street performers were seen greeting passing cars, walking around town, visiting the library, Orcas Homegrown, Island Market and Enzos.

In recent years the masks have also been adopted as a trademark symbol of the hacker group, Anonymous.
