On 29th January, Year 3 were invited to take part in a Lantern-Making workshop with artist Lavinia Cascone.
The lanterns are being made as part of a festival called Light Up Kilburn, which will feature a trail of illuminated, engaging, and playful light-based artworks bringing light, colour and creativity to Kilburn High Road and Kilburn Grange Park.
The festival will take place over three weekends from Friday 9th to Sunday 25th in February 2024.
Some of the lanterns will be part of a closing parade on Saturday 24th February, where participants will follow a large-scale light puppet and be accompanied by music celebrating the heritage of the Kilburn music scene. The aim of the project is to light the way and shine a spotlight on cultural identity, symbolism, community and creativity.
Below is a selection of photos of the work our children completed with Lavinia.
Unfortunately not the ones with chocolate chips.
