Lantern Making Workshop

Join us for a Grief Lantern Making Workshop, a gentle community space to honour the lives lost in the Lapu Lapu tragedy and the grief we each carry.

Together, we will create handmade lanterns as a symbol of remembrance, unity, and light during a time of loss. This workshop offers a quiet, supportive environment to reflect, connect, and express care through creativity.

~Isang Bagsak~
a Tagalog phrase that translates to "one down".

It signifies unity and solidarity among Filipinos, emphasizing that if one person falls, we all fall and if one rises, we all rise.

This gathering is open to the community and welcomes anyone seeking a meaningful way to honor, remember, and stand together in solidarity.
