While the core team have been feverishly working away, people are desperately needed ‘now’ to help with the giant showpiece lanterns which must be ready by Sunday:
Sharrow Lantern Carnival Needs You!
The very wonderful Sharrow Lantern carnival is nearly upon us again on Sunday 3rd April at 7.00pm. People will gather by the Basketball court in Mount Pleasant Park. and the area around Sharrow will come alive and be lit up with hundreds of sparkling /shimmering lanterns, giant creatures, crazy musical contraptions and much more.
Much stuff has been done already: there have been lantern making workshops for kids, adults, families and loads of DIY kits have been distributed(see below). There has been music and Junk-band sessions, and the giant ‘take your breath away’ lanterns are on their way, some remaining secret till the big day!
Help Needed Urgently!
However, all this takes time and work (though plenty of fun along the way and to ensure this, there is food , refreshments,etc, a classically pianist often entertains you while you create and a vast range of tunes from Reggae to Ska can be heard while you create your masterpieces or help around the place
While the core team have been feverishly working away, people are desperately needed ‘now’ to help with the giant showpiece lanterns which must be ready by Sunday: you can help paste, become a lantern maker’s mate, help saw the big bamboos for the larger lanterns, help keep the place clean, etc..or just help create the atmosphere.
