Lantern Festival with AALSA

November 8, 2023 @ 7:00 pm - 8:00 pm

Join AALSA, the Office of Diversity Collaboration and Inclusion, and the SBA Wellness Committee for a lantern festival to end your semester! As a part of Health and Wellness Week, AALSA invites Stetson students and their guests to come create lanterns, enjoy good food, and release them into the Stetson Law Pool.

Lantern festivals and light are used in many Asian cultures to celebrate the welcoming of a new year. To promote peace, healing, and strength. You write your wishes/hopes/dreams onto the lanterns and release them into the water. You can also write something you want to release. It is all about inviting in peace. Come release your stress and bring good wishes for finals!

Please RSVP on Engage 

Food served at student organization events is for students who attend the entire program.
