Volunteer with Junction Arts this winter
Bolsover Lantern Parade - Prep day
Before delivering the lantern-making workshops, a key part of the festival is turning piles of materials into ready-to-go packs for families to pick up and transform into magnificent creations that illuminate the night sky! We're asking for support from our volunteer network to help prepare these materials and packs.
Date: Wednesday 23rd October 10am - 4pm
Location: West Studios, Sheffield Road, Chesterfield, S41 7LL
Bolsover Lantern Parade - Community Workshops
These workshops are where the community gather to make their lanterns ready for the parade. They are always special days, seeing families come together and create fabulous pieces of art. There are a variety of roles available on these days - supporting with the making of lanterns, administrative tasks, and serving refreshments.
