Traditional Filipino Star Lantern-Making Workshop

October 27 @ 3:00 pm - 6:00 pm

People making paper star lanterns

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.

Space is limited. 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 $10 fee (cash only and correct change if possible) to pay at the door. Funded in part by the Franklin County Tourist Development Council. Special thanks to the City of Carrabelle.
