FREE Lantern Making Workshop.
7/9/24 - 10am - 3pm
Fishguard Town Hall
Fishguard and Goodwick residents! Create lanterns with Small World artists on Saturday 7th September to take part in the big lantern parade.
Join us to create a magnificent Lantern Parade on 20th September to celebrate the launch of Art Afoot / Celf art Droed the new art trails linking Fishguard and Goodwick, and the opening night of On Land’s Edge Festival.
We are inviting the communities of Fishguard and Goodwick to make pyramid lanterns using willow, tissue paper and a real candle. This workshop is suitable for children 8+.
You can no longer book online. We will welcome you if numbers permit.
There are some guidelines to follow:
Lantern makers aged 12+, please book an ADULT place in our online shop. NB Anyone under 16 must be accompanied by an adult.
If you’re an adult working with a child (aged 8+) please book an ADULT + CHILD place in our shop as you’ll work in pairs to make one lantern. We recommend all children aged 8-12 bring an adult helper.
Bring lunch - we’ll stop for a break and continue in the afternoon with glueing. Wear clothes you don’t mind getting sticky. Bring a water bottle.
There’ll be demos at key stages of the making. The first is at 10am, so please arrive on time.
We have the capacity to make up to 50 pyramid lanterns. BOOK* early to avoid disappointment.
*If you find that you’re unable to come closer to the date, please let us know as we will be running a reserve list.

Last word.
This is not a drop-in workshop - lantern makers need to attend the full day and we ask that you arrive at 10am for the first lantern making demo.
Look forward to working with you all soon.
