Lantern Parade season
As the nights draw in and Christmas approaches, I start to prepare for the Withey and paper Lantern workshops that I run yearly across two districts within Surrey. This year, the communities I work with (Warlingham and Stanwell) are branching out into public workshops within their communities, to add to the well established school workshops that provide the backbone of the lantern parades.
I am looking forward to sharing the skills to make our pyramid lanterns to a wider audience and to grow the volunteer base that is essential for these community events to thrive and survive.
