Lantern Making Workshop

The Crooked River Lighthouse will be offering one of their very popular lantern-making workshops on Sunday, November 13 from 1:30-4:30 pm at Cal Allen’s Coastal Art Gallery, 109 SE Ave B, Carrabelle, FL.  

Participants will learn to make a traditional Filipino Parol, a 3D star lantern. This wonderful workshop is being led by Aurora Hansen and members of the Filipino American Society of Tallahassee. Note: this workshop requires a bit more artistic skill than the jellyfish lanterns. Cost is $8 to cover materials. At the end of the workshop, attendees will go home with their own lovely lantern. Participants are encouraged to bring their glowing creation to the Crooked River Lighthouse for Lantern Fest on Saturday, November 19 from 6-10 pm to add to the awesome display.   

Space is limited to 14 participants. Reservations are required by contacting the gift shop at the Crooked River Lighthouse at 850-697-2732 or carrabellelighthouse@gmail.com. Participants are asked to bring their $8 fee (cash only and correct change if possible) to pay at the door. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council.
