COME JOIN US SATURDAY, FEBRUARY 24

WHO ARE WE AND WHY ARE WE DOING THIS?
We are a small group of Beacon residents putting on a community event to celebrate the coming spring, lunar new year, light, hope, warmth, renewal and kids!
We wanted to make our own big town/small city festival to celebrate light, like so many cultures do around the world.
All our events are free
and open to the public.
Everyone is welcome!
