Lumen Lite is a scaled down version of our annual festival, Lumen. Lumen brings together art and tech through captivating interdisciplinary art installations. Installations should feature the work of artists while also testing the limits or functions of technological platforms. Platforms can be high-tech, low-tech or somewhere in-between – the idea is that there is an artful and explorative exchange between technology and creativity. The goal of the festival is to celebrate the great community spaces, places, and parks that are available for use by the community and to animate public space through creative temporary installations.
Throughout the festival, participants are encouraged to wear masks and follow social distancing protocols. Masks will be required to participate in and with the art installations.
