The 3rd annual Lantern Festival and parade with beautiful handmade lanterns will take place on Saturday, February 28th. This year's theme is Love and Light, and we welcome everyone to join us in making lanterns and celebrating with the Cape Elizabeth community and beyond! This is an event for all ages and there will be many opportunities for lantern-making in advance of the festival.
Head to the TML website to register for individual workshops and learn how to make your own lanterns!
