Come join us at the 19th Annual Winter Solstice Lantern Event produced by The Secret Lantern Society.

For the fourth year, our volunteers will be at the Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Gardens with a blank slate for you to contribute to.

We provide a plain white cube and coloured tissue paper and scissors – and you tear or cut and attach your image onto the community lantern.

What: A community lantern

Where: Dr. Sun Yat-Sen Classical Chinese Gardens

 

Our 2011  eco-arts lantern was a tree-shape made from 6 bamboo poles, strung together. Participants added laurel and magnolia leaves punched into lovely designs.
