The Mosesian Center for the Arts will host the annual River of Light Lantern Parade — a celebration of light in the heart of the winter. See details in the announcement from the City of Watertown, below.
Join us for the River of Light Lantern Parade on Saturday, Jan. 17, 2026, at 4 p.m. at the Mosesian Center for the Arts, located at 321 Arsenial St. Celebrate creativity, community, and light. Artists and community members will showcase handmade lanterns made in our workshops. Experience light through breathtaking performances by local light spinners and dancers.
Watertown Free Public Library’s Bookmobile will be onsite, and we’ll have cookies and hot cocoa inside the Mosesian at our MBar.
The River of Light is a celebration of light in winter. Presented by the Public Arts & Culture Committee and the Mosesian Center for the Arts in partnership with the Watertown Cultural Council, the lantern-making workshops and wintertime parade build community and bring light, joy, and festivities during the darkest season of the year.
