Light-filled paper crafts for all skill levels to bring us safely together through the year’s longest night. Come celebrate the solstice and our hopes for the return of the sun.
This event involves drop in, self-guided crafting and will take place upstairs at the long tables by the computers. A limited number of grab-and-go versions of the activities will also be available.
Join children and families who have decorated lanterns and walk with them and the nuns and monks from the NE Peace Pagoda to Nashawannuck Pond where the lanterns will be drawn out across the pond in the traditional ceremony. We will gather at the library at 5:30, where there will be ice cream for children, and then walk together to the pond for the lantern launch which will start at 6pm.
