Lanterns of Light Workshop
Sunday, July 26th, 10am - 12pm
The Bridge House
Join Keala for a mindful workshop exploring the ancient power of lanterns as symbols of light triumphing over darkness. We'll make beautiful wax paper lanterns while infusing them with personal positive intentions, affirmations, and wishes for healing, growth, and empowerment!
All are welcome, including those with mental health challenges, social service providers, and interested community members. This free event is a part of the Nature & Art as Therapy program, offering a unique approach to mental health through interaction with creativity, ʻāina, and community.
If you are interested in attending but face barriers, please let us know; transportation support may be available upon request.
