Traditional Filipino Star Lantern-Making Workshop

The Crooked River Lighthouse in partnership with the Big Bend Filipino-American Association will be offering their very popular lantern-making workshop on Sunday, October 27 from 3:00-6:00 pm at C-Quarters Marina, 501 St. James Avenue (Hwy 98), 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 Big Bend Filipino-American Association. Note: this workshop requires a bit more artistic skill than the jellyfish lantern workshop. Cost is $10 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 9 from 6-10 pm to add to the awesome display.
