A night of a thousand lights

15th May

Being a part of a thousand lights to brighten up the longest night of the year is something quite special. The Mixed Media group at Sussex Neighbourhood House are amongst more than twenty of Melbourne’s culturally diverse communities, creating lanterns which will glow at Federation Square, on Saturday 23rd June. 

Although the sticky back 'paper' was a little challenging to start, for all, we soon got into the swing of things to create these vibrant lantern bags. Little battery powered 'candles' of different colours look wonderful when placed inside.

Thanks to the lovely lantern artist, Anu, who is as vibrant as the lanterns she introduces us to. We look forward to seeing you next week for more lantern fun!
