Lantern Festival February 24th, 2012

I am so happy to be performing again at this years Lantern Festival at Haney Place in Maple Ridge.  I get to do two sets, one of my childrens songs and one featuring my songs about the Fraser Valley.

The fourth annual Lantern Festival will begin at Haney Place Mall this Friday at 4 p.m. with music, performances, and poems, and end outside with a lantern parade around Memorial Peace Park starting at 7 p.m.
The festival will bring a "bright spot in the dead of winter," according to the lantern festival's co-chair Sammy Nelligan. The free family-oriented event will include local dance groups, and as a new feature, Hmong dancers from northern China.
