Luminary Lantern Magic

Lisa Kimberly Glickman will share her Luminary Lantern Magic in the shape of wondrous water lilies and other mesmerizing designs. Is there anything more magical than a beautiful starry night? In this workshop, using recycled materials you will learn how to create several lanterns you can use to decorate your home, balcony or yard and feel what it’s like to be at sea on a starry night. No art experience necessary. In addition, participate in this year’s edition of the city of Sherbrooke’s whimsical Rivières de Lumières/Rivers of Light by placing a lantern outside your home on the 25th and 26th of September on the first weekend of the Journées de la Culture. The festival invites people from across the province to join in the shimmering fun!
