Greetings from First Light Festival in Lowestoft
Part of Greetings from Lowestoft
What a fabulous day.
The sun shone, the puppets were perfect, the parade was awesome and the people flocked to the beach.
In the Cosmic Pirate Zone, we pasted postcards and created mythical sea creatures and generally didn’t stop all afternoon; it was such fun.
Thank you to everyone who came along and took part – it was a joy to see you all and we’re already looking forward to what we can make together next year.
Bon Voyage
