The Nature of Light Fun

 When Stacy text me and asked if I wanted to go to Nature of Light Exhibit at the Paine Art Center and Garden, I didn't even hesitate. However between COVID and our vacation, the fun had to wait a week. I missed book club to make this work.

The Nature of Light: An Exploration After Dark is a indoor and outdoor exhibit at the Paine that runs through October. Tickets are $16/$20 an adult depending on the day of the week for the outside exhibit only or $21/$27 for both inside and outside exhibits. Since we went before September 9th, we got preview admission rates and it was only $8 for the outside which we did or $14 for the inside and outside exhibit. Reservations are required which made it a bit more difficult to fit in once COVID struck Stacy's house since there needed availability and we just got lucky there was a spot open before the preview ended.


Nature of Light is an exhibit HYBYCOZO Sculptures that are light up with various lights. It is very interactive. You can gently spin the sculptures to cast the lights around. 









Some you can walk in.



There are 36 sculptures places throughout the gardens. You can go through the gardens how many times you like as the darker it gets, the brighter the lights become. We managed to go through once and if the kids didn't need to go to school the next day, we might have gone around again.




The kids really enjoyed it. 

It is a spectacular display of lights that is fun for the whole family. It takes about an hour to go through the exhibit. The timed entry really does help control the people. If you can snag some tickets before it ends, do it. It is definitely worth checking out.
