Newcastle Lanterns Crowdfunder 2022

Can you support us to make this year’s Newcastle Lantern Parade a reality?

We're raising funds to run public lantern workshops leading to our much loved lantern parade in Newcastle-Under-Lyme Town on Sat 3 December.

After the success of last year's Lantern parade in Newcastle-Under-Lyme we are hoping to run it again this year for the second year in a row. This would mean a series of open public workshops leading to a community lantern parade on Saturday 3 December. The parade will include people holding their creations (willow and tissue lanterns hung on a bamboo pole) and a local band plus some larger artist made lanterns.

We receive no guaranteed funding and this Crowdfunder is a vital part of keeping Newcastle Lanterns alive.

To donate and to find out about all the great rewards on offer head over to: https://www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/newcastle-lantern-parade-2022

If you can’t support us in cash then we’d love it if you could share our Crowdfunder with your colleagues, family and friends. Or alternatively you can volunteer your time at one of our workshops or event, for more information please contact: info@b-arts.org.uk with subject line: Newcastle Lanterns Volunteering 2022.

Thank you!
