This public celebration will feature large-scale projections and light installations alongside immersive sound, performance and multimedia experiences that reimagine the city at night. Illuminus will transform South End, Boston’s streetscapes into a vibrant urban canvas where regional artists, designers, creative technologists, architects, performers and fabricators converge to showcase their most thoughtful, innovative and imaginative works. The festival will provoke and inspire, celebrating the creative approaches to art, culture, and community that form the foundation of a thriving and dynamic city.

“The vision for this large scale installation of “Light Beams Dance” inside the powerplant shell at SOWA in Boston’s South End. With Christie projectors and a powerful sound system to match BT’s track, it should be awesome.” – François-Xavier de Costerd
