The inaugural Eureka Springs Grand Illumination will take place over the weekend of May 13th-16th.
Downtown Eureka will be aglow with thousands of brilliant paper lanterns, day and night, as will many of the city’s stately Victorian homes. In addition to the beautiful displays other Eureka Springs Grand Illumination activities include paper lantern painting for kids in Basin Spring Park.
The event is patterned after the century-old Grand Illumination of the cottage-city gingerbread homes on Martha’s Vineyard and is an inaugural event for May Festival of the Arts 2010.
Visitors to Eureka Springs are encouraged to bring cameras, or paints and easel, to capture the homes, gardens and businesses in illumination.
