Returning for four straight
days, beginning Wednesday, Feb.
1, the Portland Winter Light Fes-
tival will illuminate even more of
Portland’s cityscape, brilliantly
awakening the city in the dark of
winter into a glowing tapestry of
light, color, artistry, performance
and imagination.
Centrally hosted at OMSI and
presented by Portland General
Electric, this free, all-ages festival
celebrates the spirit of winter and
warmth of community by show-
casing artists who dazzle visitors
with innovative light-based art-
works and performances.
An extension of the Willamette
Light Brigade, over 30,000 at-
tendees enjoyed nearly two dozen
artists across the southeast Wa-
terfront last year, a glowing bike
ride, silent disco, a light science
talk series, performances, and
more. This year, 42 visual artist
teams and nine light and fire per-
formance troupes have been invit-
ed to participate.
Festival hours are 6 p.m. to 10
p.m. on Wednesday and Thursday,
and 6 p.m. to 11 p.m. on Friday
and Saturday. Parking at OMSI is
$5.
