Crafting Paper Lanterns for Robertson Paper Mill Kiosk

Past event
May 18, 2024, 9 AM to 12 PM

Come craft with us at the Waypoint Center at 17 Depot St. on Saturday, May 18th. We will be decorating paper lanterns with paper salvaged from the Robertson Paper Mill at 21 Island St. for a dedication ceremony and ribbon cutting at the Interpretive Kiosk on June 5th 5-5:30 pm to coincide with the 2024 Downtown and Historic Preservation Conference held this year in Bellows Falls.

The dedication will feature the lanterns, decorated by the community. The kiosk was assembled almost entirely from materials reclaimed from the demolition of the mill in 2019, made possible by cleanup funds earmarked from the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)'s Targeted Brownfields Assessment Program, granted to the Bellows Falls Area Development Corporation for site redevelopment.

All ages and everyone is welcome! As we honor the past and embrace the future of the site of the Robertson Paper Mill.
