Future Foundry and Dover Arts Development are hosting lantern making workshops to create lighthouse lanterns for the finale event of the DAD Festival ‘You can reach the world from Dover’.
We are working with UCA Architecture students to enable them to create fabulous Lighthouse Lanterns inspired by Dover Lighthouses, which will be carried along Dover’s sea front at dusk, accompanied by lanterns made and carried by the Dover community.
