Decoupage Lanterns Workshop

Let’s transform plain paper lanterns into vibrant, unique artefacts for the Speak Voulmes Parade, using traditional tissue decoupage techniques and ribbons for embellishment.

This isn't just about crafting, it's about community: Share tips, chatter and laughter with your fellow workshoppers, and hold your lantern high at PARADE: an interactive piece of promenade theatre where anybody can be part of the story! Inspired by folkloric tales and local legends: PARADE will combine colour and storytelling with elements of dance, puppetry, poetry and music. We'd love for you to take part!

🎉 PARADE will take place from 5pm on the Arches promenade (Croft Walk) on Saturday, 30th May. Join us for dragons, guided movement, and magic.

As part of Speak Volumes’ Parade, this hands-on workshop for adults invites you to design and create colourful festival lanterns. You'll be guided through cutting, layering, and folding new life into your lantern/ Whether you're inspired by nature and folklore, or stained glass windows: the aim is to leave the workshop with at least one hand-made creation!

Suitable for complete beginners and advanced crafters: get messy and experiement with shape, colour and layering. All supplies provided at this workshop designed for Speak Volumes Festival.
