Paper Lanterns

Get ready for Light, Paper, Scissors! This hands on, unique paper lantern project is easy, fun, and beautiful.

Guests will learn to fold paper into a three-dimensional shape and cut out design patterns to cast out light from their unique creation. These versatile lanterns, inspired by Ancient Greece oil lamps, cast a beautiful soft light whether you hang them, lace them on a surface, or carry them around the house or even going for a night walk with friends or family.

Learn a different take on paper lantern making. Immerse yourself designing, cutting, folding, and painting (optional), to create a beautiful decorative piece, perfect to illuminate any festivity or simply enjoy the ambience. Professional artist LuzMarina will demonstrate the process and guide you through every step of the project.

Your host, LuzMarina, is an Oakland-based professional artist, originally from Venezuela.
