Description
A Christmas Eve night line of symbolic candle light illuminated paper lantern paper bag luminaries arranged in a long row at the edge of a suburban neighborhood street. This type of decorative light luminary/luminaria/farolitos is assembled with sand and a small wax votive candle in lunch-size paper bags. Every year, many families in this Rochester, New York, northeastern USA area residential housing development cooperate by putting luminaries along the perimeter of their property at the edge of the street - creating a coordinated, symbolic and tranquil community holiday event to emphasize togetherness and "Peace on Earth" throughout the neighborhood.
