Residents are invited to participate in \;
Unite by Light 2021\, a fully inclusive luminary event in Simsbury that unites the entire community for a single night of connection and joy. This luminary event will once again feature the Simsbury Unity Mile - a mile of luminaries that will set Hopmeadow St. aglow \;by candlelight with the spirit of friendship\, unity\, and community! \;
\nThis year\, we are inviting residents to
purchase one or more single luminaries \;and decorate their bag(s) in celebration of the holiday season\, a special event in their life\, or in memory of a loved one. And each purchase will sponsor a luminary bag for a Simsbury older adult resident.
THESE are the bags that will line Hopmeadow St.
(For All Ages will distribute and collect older adult sponsored bags.) \;\n
\n
Will you be able to find YOUR luminary along the Simsbury Unity Mile?\n
\nPurchase your luminary
on-line\, at our booth at SeptemberFEAST\, or at one of our tables outside of Fitzgerald'\;s Foods in October and November. Decorate your bag at the time of your purchase OR drop off your decorated luminary bag at the Simsbury Public Library beginning in mid-September or during one of our sales times in front of Fitzgerald'\;s. \;
\n
\nWe need many volunteers to bring this magic to life! Visit our
Unite by Light page for volunteer opportunities and to sign up.
