Lights Of Love Returns to Rialto Square Theatre

The Joliet tradition is a evening designed to remember loved ones who have passed on.

Each year around this time, the rotunda of the Rialto Square Theatre is transformed into a winter wonderland. The Festival of Trees opened its doors for 2012 Monday night. On Wednesday comes another tradition. Those who bought a $15 Lights of Love ornament get special admission to the Lights of Love event at the theater - an event designed to remember loved ones.

The rotunda of the theater opens at 5 p.m., Nov. 21 and doors to the theater open at 5:30 p.m. with open seating. The Lights of Love ceremony begins at 6 p.m.

This year, Joliet Area Community Hospice has created a video from those who submitted their loved ones' photos by the Nov. 1 deadline.
