Events

Community Lantern Making Workshop

Join Bow Arts in Royal Albert Wharf for a free workshop with artist Yuliya V Krylova to create a selection of lanterns inspired by the landscape of the Royal Docks.

Yuliya V Krylova will be sharing the skills to create your own winter lanterns using willow sticks and decorative paper. The lanterns will be on display during the Royal Albert Wharf Winter Market, lighting up the docklands with a gentle glow.

Using a variety of materials, participants will be invited to get hands-on, bringing their own creative inspirations and unique methods to the workshop. No previous experience is required and all materials will be provided.

Visitors are welcome to drop-in at their leisure, and stay for as long or as little time as they wish.
