Join us for the 2023 Celebration of Lights

Saturday, December 9, 2023, 5 PM

The Gardiner Common
2 Dresden Avenue, Gardiner, Maine

Imagine hundreds of luminaria bathing the Common in Gardiner with their warm light — not a solemn remembrance, but a celebration of life.

On December 9th at twilight, luminaria will be lit by our volunteers in a beautiful display. At 5 p.m. we will walk through the glowing luminaria on the Common and end with a brief program to celebrate those who have brought light into our lives.  Luminaria will remain lit until 7 p.m. Christ Episcopal Church will be open for anyone who would like to come inside to warm up during the event. 

If a snow event occurs on December 9, the Celebration of Lights will change to Sunday, December 10, 2023 at 5 p.m.

Luminaria may be purchased at the event.
