Lantern Fest illuminates the autumn night

October 10, 2011
Last Saturday, Crouse and Kim Streets were transformed into a dimly lit, gypsy-like parade of families, friends, performers, artists and characters for the annual Don Drumm Studios Light-Up Lantern Festival. This is the third year for the annual festival, and it has gotten more strange and exciting each time. This year’s theme was “Storybooks,” and artists designed their lanterns, costumes and booths to match this theme. Upon entering Crouse Street, visitors were immediately greeted by a large stage with a band playing folksy, vaudeville music. In fact, there were four different areas with 15 different bands rotating between them so that there was always music to add to the ambiance of the night.
