When was the last time you made something that glows?

This month, we're making lanterns. Not the fancy kind — the kind you punch, cut, and fold from paper, then fill with a little bit of LED light. The kind that casts shadows on your walls and reminds you that sometimes the smallest light is enough. We'll draw from traditions that understand this: Polynesian navigators who crossed oceans by starlight, papel picado artists who turn paper into lace, shadow puppeteers who make magic with their hands. Together we'll make vessels that hold a little light, and take time to remember that we don’t always need floodlights to find our way. Sometimes a pinhole is enough to navigate by.
