2nd Annual Points of Light Lantern Festival

For 2018, we’re adding more space for people to view their lanterns; providing more opportunities beforehand for our community to personalize lanterns with their wishes, remembrances, and creative expressions; and working with Lowell’s diverse communities, artists, and organizations to add special touches to a magical night.

We’ll be keeping the elements we heard the community liked, including performances from youth groups and professionals, displaying all the creative and inspiring lanterns prior to their launch, and working toward keeping the event as close to zero-waste as possible.

Please help us reach our goal of 1,000 lanterns in the Western Canal! Donate online: http://www.cultureiscool.org/points-of-light-please-donate
