Lantern making has high appeal as a community arts medium because you don't need to be an accomplished artist to make an
​attractive lantern.  The technology is simple and the materials relatively inexpensive.  Using glow sticks and LED lights to illuminate the lanterns removes the fire risk hazard.  A mass of lanterns are spectacular adding a sense of magic to an evening event.
