This year Coleford Shadows of Light Festival will come alive with shadows and stories.

In the last few weeks children in local schools and youth have created their own shadow

boxes based  on a tradition of telling stories from Bali.

They have taken the theme of winter and explored how to tell their own stories and they

will be sharing them in performance at the Coleford Baptist Church from 3pm on Saturday

1st December there will also be a display of shadow bag lanterns.

From 4-30 they will be part of the street entertainment around the town centre

culminating in the lights switch on at 5-30pm..
