THE LAMPLIGHTER
Interactive Sculpture and Paintings by Tyler and Ashley Voorhees**look for it next to the Christmas tree in downtown Manistee!The Lamplighter harks back to the early days when the streets of most towns and cities were lit by gas lamps. By means of long poles, ladders, and even tall bikes, these lamps had to be lit each night as dusk turned to darkness. Lamplighters provided not only light but also safety in their communities. More than just a job, these harbingers of light represent a way of life: illuminating darkness. We all carry the light within us and The Lamplighter symbolizes a collective connection to spread that light.
