Lantern-making workshops


This year we've organised a number of community-based workshops so that children of all ages, families and friends who want to join the lantern procession all have the opportunity to make and carry their own lantern:

12th and 13th October (10am to 5pm) at St. Clement's Hall, Townstal.
28th and 29th October (10am to 5pm) at St. John Ambulance Hall, Collingwood Road.
2nd November (10am to 1pm) at Dartmouth Library.
9th and 10th November (10am to 4pm) at Dartmouth Academy.

Most workshops will run for most of the day, giving you plenty of time to craft your own beautiful lantern. However, the shorter Dartmouth Library workshop will focus on making the willow frames only.

There's no need to book. If it's super busy, you might just have to wait a bit. We'll provide all the materials to make your lantern. But you'll need to provide your own lights.

Also, there's no charge for the workshop. But if you can spare a few pennies, there will be a donation tin to help with next year's Candlelit event.

Please remember to bring your own lights. We recommend these: https://amzn.eu/d/hjzfP4O.
