Luminaria: Arts Come to Live
Saturday, May 5, 2012
6:30 p.m. to midnight
HemisFair Park
FREE
Luminaria has been rescheduled for Saturday, May 5. It will coincide with the three-day Cinco de Mayo festival, so come for both!
Luminaria is styled after an international arts movement that began in Paris in 2002, Luminaria is an outdoor, evening public arts festival, free of charge and family-centric. As the sun sets in the early evening hours, the shimmering lights of the festival come to life. Luminaria is held at the 90-acre HemisFair Park, just a block from the River Walk.
Dozens of artists, individually and in teams, create dramatic stage performances, magical streetscapes, dazzling light installations and galleries filled with surprising treasures. Artists come from diverse disciplines: music, dance, film, literary arts, theater/performance and visual arts. Local chefs and restaurants serve hungry festival goers from their mobile kitchens.
2012 is Luminaria's fifth year and for the first time, well-known curators from prestigious arts institutions were involved to select the artists invited to show their work.
