  • Attend a lantern making workshop at the Crichton Cultural Community Centre
  • Call us to arrange a facilitated lantern making workshop for your BBQ, summer camp, office party, bridal shower, sleep over or any other social gathering.
  • We have lantern making kits available at the CCCC. These kits come with all the supplies you require (except for white glue), instructions and even an email address for if you need some help.
