Light up Wethersfield, CT with Keane Foundation Luminaria kits for Christmas Eve

December 4, 2019 @ 8:00 am - December 23, 2019 @ 12:00 pm

Be a part of the joy of a 45-year-old Wethersfield tradition by displaying luminaria, special votive candles in sand-lined bags, along your property this Christmas Eve.

Luminaria are most beautiful when entire neighborhoods display them. It is recommended that you display bags at the end of your yard 6-10 feet apart along the road.

Each luminaria kit costs $1.50, and includes the 14-hour candle, special bag, and instructions. All proceeds raised will benefit the Keane Foundation’s After School Enrichment Programs and the 9/11 Memorial Sports Center.

Kits are available at Wethersfield Travel in Old Wethersfield now through 12:00pm on Monday, December 23, 2019 for use on Christmas Eve. To order your kits, please call 860-257-3775, and they will be ready for you to pick up at your convenience.

Light your luminaria at dusk on Christmas Eve, they will shine until Christmas morning!

The Keane Foundation was established to create a 9/11 Memorial Sports Center in the Wethersfield community. Richard Keane was killed in the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center on September 11, 2001.
