The Library Lights Up for Oxford Light Festival

Whilst the Oxford Light Festival can’t take place in the usual way, there are still lots of ways to get involved and lots happening to lift our spirits. This year we are all encouraged to join in by making something illuminated, and lighting up our windows: with the themes of the light that moves us forward, green recovery and build back better, my community, real life heroes, and being thankful.

The Library has already got involved with the placement of these (definitely not open flame!) candles in the windows and we hope to cover the entire college in candles, lights, and lanterns during the Festival.

The JCR, MCR, and SCR are coming together to make and display lanterns and College will be buying some small LED candles for us all to use. So why not get on and start on your lantern (https://www.oxlightfest.com/get-involved), or a stained glass window display? You can also go on a Light Festival walk and much more, so do check out the site!
