Bug Lights @ The Shipyards
Build an authentic bug light from an old tin can. Bug lights were used in North Vancouver to help hikers find their way through the darkness. Join MONOVA staff and volunteers at these off-site sessions where we will be making a bug light using a hammer and nail and lighting it with a candle. This seasonal craft is family-friendly and a perfect way to celebrate the long winter nights.
