A group of artists created lanterns for the GLOW! Sculpture Trail.
On Thursday, Aug. 3, 2017, the Triangle L Ranch and artist, Carol Mahoney hosted a ceramic lantern making party at the Wilson Barn at Rancho Linda Vista. The Triangle L is moving towards more permanent lighting along the sculpture paths. A number of Oracle’s artists were there to create with clay, some fine lanterns which may be made in time for the upcoming GLOW! 2017.
The lanterns will be wired later with low-voltage lighting. Jim Pollack, from the Triangle L Ranch Bed & Breakfast said of the sculpture paths: “We would like to see them lit with lanterns emitting gorgeous patterns of light.”
