Fiesta De la Guadalupana Lantern Workshop @The Woo

Join us for a three-day Lantern-Making Workshop at The Woo, presented in collaboration with All For Logan and inspired by the cultural traditions of Fiesta de la Guadalupana. This hands-on workshop invites participants of all ages to explore the history, symbolism, and storytelling that shape this beloved celebration.

Across three guided sessions, attendees will learn the foundations of lantern construction, reflect on personal and collective narratives, and design illuminated lanterns using tissue paper, natural elements, photographs, text, and more. The workshop blends cultural education with creative expression, culminating in lanterns prepared for a community procession.

Workshop Schedule:

• Wednesday, December 10 | 5–8 p.m. Introduction to lantern-making, imagery, and the history behind the Feast Day.

• Thursday, December 11 | 5–7 p.m. Building lantern panels, assembling tealight holders, and beginning lantern structure.

• Friday, December 12 | 5–7 p.m. Final assembly, decorations, and preparation for community display.

All materials are included. Families are welcome.

This workshop is a warm invitation to create, learn, and honor tradition through art — strengthening community ties and preserving cultural memory.

Location: The Woo, Barrio Logan
