Following last years highly successful inaugural event join with other primary schools for the second annual mid winter exhibition of light!

Opening the 2014 LIGHT NELSON festival at Queens Gardens Thursday 3rd July at 6 o’clock, Float a Wish is a schools community art project.

This year, we’re widening the event to allow combined class built vessels as well as individual ones. Also instead of just raft style lanterns we’re encouraging other styles such as decorated paper plates, puka leaf rafts and any other, biodegradable base – check out for some ideas.
