About The Event
Join us at Envirohub to learn how to make an upcycled paper star lantern using one of the many paper shopping bags you have stashed at home! We will provide all materials needed, but ask that you bring a paper shopping bag if you have one (a rip or two is fine).
We will share light refreshments and a info on the meaning of Matariki before launching into the construction of your lantern!
If you like, you can then bring your lantern along to walk the Matariki Light Trail at Ngāpeke Permaculture (Welcome Bay) a few weeks later
BONUS: You can also choose to make a small upcycled glass lantern to contribute to the Ngāpeke Light trail. Just bring along a glass jar with the label removed, and we will make them together at the end of the paper lantern workshop.
Date: Saturday 7th June
Time: 10am until approx. 12pm
