Each year, Canalway Partners has greeted the spring — or the first hints of it anyway — with its Towpath Trail Lantern Parade, a fun and create event for families and people of all ages. The event snakes along the trail beside the Cuyahoga River in the early evening as community members join artists brandishing homemade, battery- or solar-powered lanterns created from recycled materials. It starts and ends at Sokolowski’s Overlook in Tremont. The next one will take place on March 8, 2025 @ 6pm.
Canalway is currently looking for artists to create large-scale lanterns on the themes of nature, spring, environmentalism or the Canalway area. Artists must attend the event and carry their lantern, and are encouraged to take part in other aspects of the event. Submissions are due by January 3. Go here for full information on how to submit.
