Learn about the lanterns that signalled safety to enslaved people as they journeyed to freedom on the famous 'underground railroad' . Then make your own lantern to take home in this free workshop, led by Faith from the Liverpool Lantern Company. In the Anthony Walker Education Centre. Family friendly event, booking essential.

Faith has recently completed a private commission for a client's garden in the Isle of Man. The piece depicts the coat of arms and has the Manx motto laser cut into the circular steel base. The three legged sculpture is made of iron resin, so the piece although grey now, will age naturally over time to a warm rusty colour. The sculpture also has a special fitting to allow the piece to be rotated by hand so the work can be viewed from different angles.

Faith joined Liverpool Lantern Company's lead artist team again for this year's Halloween Festival held in Sefton Park, Liverpool. She helped create several large scale animated lanterns including a large scorpion and several hungry ghosts!
