Feast of Lanterns
Donations and Sponsorships

Planning is well under way for the 2010 Pacific Grove Feast of Lanterns celebration, which will be held July 21 through July 25. Each year we must look to our community for the financial support that will enable us to carry on the century-old tradition. It is with pride that we find the community’s enthusiasm and support for the Feast of Lanterns grows stronger each year. We can, with your support, continue to celebrate our community’s history, traditions and culture. We invite you to become a part of this historic and festive event by joining our distinguished list of Sponsors and Donors. It is the support of our community’s members that make it possible to bring this piece of Americana to Pacific Grove each year. We have designed three Sponsorship Packages that offer a range of participation – we trust one is right for you. The Sponsorship Package Summary details the benefits of Sponsorship. We have four Donor categories that also offer a range of participation – be recognized as a Feast of Lanterns patron in the local newspaper.

Thank you to our 2009 Sponsors!
