- Advanced crafters (who have either completed the Intermediate workshops or received approval from the Springfield Lit Creature Keepers) will meet at the Historic Springfield Society Building (210 W 7th St) from 6-8 PM on the above dates for guidance and support as they create their own large-scale lantern creatures, like Springfield's own Opal the Flamingo!
- Supplies and direct instruction will not be provided, but experienced lantern-makers will be on-hand to help troubleshoot and share tips as you complete your project.
