Highland Lights Illuminates the Night

Together with the Processional Arts Workshop, The Garrison hosted the first-ever Highland Lights, a celebration of art and nature. Highland Lights invited neighbors to create collaborative works during free public workshops, in which over 120 volunteers attended throughout the month of March. The workshop culminated in a spectacular outdoor procession of lights and lanterns through The Garrison paths on April 17 with over 250 attendees with live accompaniment by J.C. King, an interactive sound installation. The evening culminated with a celebration with food, drink, merriment, and a campfire. Highland Lights was created in partnership with several local not-for-profits including the Garrison Art Center, Haldane Arts Alliance, Hudson Highlands Land Trust, Hudson Valley Shakespeare Festival, Arts10566, The Philipstown Depot Theatre, and the Hudson Valley Performing Arts Laboratory.
