Two Jer’s Vision volunteers will set rainbow lanterns free this weekend at the Lumière Festival.
Summer volunteers Lorrain Tyrany and Vatoul Kazan created the multicoloured lanterns as a fun way to promote the youth diversity initiative.
Tyrany says she was drawn to Jer’s Vision as the promotion of diversity.
“I’m a really strong supporter of anything that has to do with human rights and helping out people. I am really against bullying of any kind whether it’s based on ethnicity or gender,” Tyrany says. “I thought it would be a great experience.”
The Lumière Festival is an annual event by the New Edinburgh Community and Arts Centre which culminates with “an evening of light” celebration.
