Hanging a leaf on the community tree

What a great success - the second lantern festival for Belgrave. Once again the community came together to walk with their lanterns down the main street of Belgrave or from the sidelines to watch the amazing parade of lanterns before them.

The lyrebird lantern was one of the highlights of the parade

The lantern festival is a great example of this community coming together to celebrate being part of this community. There is something inspirational and beautiful about this festival. The festival brings out a feeling of harmony, peace and connectedness that is inspiring. It harnesses people's creativity and togetherness and the parade is a breathtaking sight as it wends it way along main street.
