Top landscape lighting designers from across North America, will gather in Danville to re-envision the nightscape at Averett University's main campus.
For one night only, guests and members of the community will be able to see a temporary lighting display highlighting the brilliant possibilities for future lighting enhancement.
This outdoor event will be one of the largest lighting design challenges in the country. Design teams will rely upon their creativity, expertise, and cutting-edge products to illuminate key areas on Averett University's campus, such as Jordan Commons, the Student Center patio, and the iconic Main Hall building constructed in 1910.
The design teams will be led by award-winning lighting designers and mentors from across the U.S. and the Caribbean. Tasked with bringing their designs to completion in an accelerated time frame with a limited number of lighting fixtures, designers will be challenged to show the campus in a new light.
The landscape lighting displays will be available to view for one night only, open to the general public on Thursday, July 21 at 9 p.m. It will be held at the Main Hall, 420 West Main St. in Danville.
