On March 19, Boyle Street was “aglow” with floating lanterns that had been made by community members who worked on this project for a number of weeks. A colourful dragon was one of the centrepieces, as well as a bear, owl, and horse, not to mention a number of stars and other bright creations.

The parade started at the Boyle Street Plaza and wound its way around the neighbourhood. GLOW was organized by Quarters Arts and funded in part by the Edmonton Arts Council through the Community Arts Program and Make Something Edmonton’s Project Accelerator Grant Program.
