Join our wonderful Barrowfull team in creating a beautiful illuminated parol lantern for your window as devised by light-artist Sara Blackburn!

This traditional Filipino artform involves using bamboo and tissue to make a unique decorated 3D star that can be hung in your window and brought out year after year.

Suitable for adults and families (children must be joined by a parent or guardian).

All materials will be provided.

We will be using glue and we encourage you to get a little messy, so please wear appropriate clothing!

Your star may still be wet when you take it home, so please do bring a plastic bag to carry it.
