International Friendsgiving & German Lantern Festival

🏮 International Friendsgiving & German Lantern Festival 🏮
Wednesday, November 11 · 3:30–6:30 PM
Families, you're invited! Join WNC International Connections as we celebrate Saint Martin's Day (Sankt Martin), the German tradition where children carry glowing lanterns through the dark to celebrate sharing, generosity and light. This year our walk falls on Veterans Day, so we'll also light a light for our heroes. 🇺🇸
📍 Schedule
🎨 3:30–5:00 PM · Lantern making, arts & crafts at Haus Heidelberg German Restaurant, 630 Greenville Hwy, Hendersonville (thank you, Haus Heidelberg!)
🚶 5:15 PM · Lantern walk at The Park at Flat Rock as the sun goes down
🥧 What to bring
• A dessert or snack to share. Treats from your home country are extra welcome!
• Warm layers and comfy shoes for the evening walk
👨‍👩‍👧 Who's it for? Families, kids of all ages, and anyone who loves meeting people from around the world.
