WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO
ACROSS THE CITY
The lantern parade and light trail are being created with communities across Wolverhampton.
Members of the Steel Bones group at West Park Hospital, supporting amputees, have been making willow lanterns, alongside participants from SUIT.
Public workshops over the summer have also invited people to create sea creatures for one of the festival's light displays, building towards the artworks you'll discover across the city in November.
We are also hoping to work with local schools to transform upcycled household materials into sea creatures and create drawings for the light displays.
