Winchester Cathedral invite you to get involved with their new community project by creating a lantern for their Christmas art installation.

As the days get shorter and darker and we look towards the light and hope of Christmas, Winchester Cathedral has a creative project for you!

We’re making a giant suspended art installation from hundreds of lanterns. The good news is – anyone of any age can join in by making a cut-out white paper lantern from the simplest punched out shapes to elaborate paper-cut work. On the inside you’re invited to write a prayer or message which will be enfolded and offered up amidst the lights. It could be the name of a special person you want to remember or anything else that is special for you.

Help us build the biggest, brightest installation by adding your very own lantern. You can collect card from the Winchester Cathedral Education Centre from October 27 or use your own to make your lantern at home.
