Jamaica Pond Lantern Parade

Lantern Making Workshops $5

@ Jamaica Pond Boathouse


The ritual of the Jamaica Pond Lantern Parade began in 1984 when
people gathered to make a journey with their candle-lit lanterns around
Jamaica Pond. In preparation for the Lantern Parade, Spontaneous
Celebrations and community members host lantern making workshops in
which youth and adults of all ages create beautiful hand made lanterns
from recycled soda bottles decorated with colorful tissue paper. The
festival also involves local businesses who sell hand made lanterns in their
shops. By the night of the festival, several thousand people have made
lanterns (and anyone who hasn't can purchase one the night of the
parade). Each year approximately 4,000 people arrive at Jamaica Pond at
sunset with their lanterns; many children arriving in full Halloween costume
as well. The parade proceeds around the pond, bringing a trail of bouncing
lights into the darkness that can be seen from all directions. This beautiful
autumn evening ceremony has become an annual tradition in our
community. This year it will take place on the Saturday,. October 23rd and
Sunday, the 24th. The Lantern Parade has it's cultural roots in Japanese
lantern making and Dutch tradition. It reflects our dedication to building
community by exploring old and creating new cultural traditions.
