"From Nov. 21-Jan. 4, BBG will be transformed into a twinkling enchanted forest, decked out with millions of glittering lights and nearly 20 illuminated installations. This year's display is inspired by the garden's natural flora and fauna and features more than a dozen new works and some old favorites."
""Lightscape has become one of New York City's most cherished winter traditions, and BBG is excited to keep reinventing the experience - with even more captivating moments and community spaces this year," said Adrian Benepe, president and CEO of Brooklyn Botanic Garden, in a statement."
""For our fifth year, we are inviting guests to enter the enchantment of a winter wonderland, populated by magical forest creatures and their habitats. We hope new and returning visitors can make joyful memories with family and friends at Lightscape.""
"As visitors explore the twisting one-mile trail, they'll come upon "Fluxit," a new installation with hundreds of individually-rigged LED tubes designed to mimic firelight, in the Plant Family Collection. Nearby, Geraldin Pilgrim and the Culture Creative's "Flock" of 175 translucent, glowing birds forage through the leaves and perch on tree branches."
From Nov. 21–Jan. 4, Brooklyn Botanic Garden transforms into Lightscape, a twinkling enchanted forest with millions of lights and nearly 20 illuminated installations. The display draws inspiration from the garden's natural flora and fauna and presents more than a dozen new works alongside returning favorites. A one-mile twisting trail includes installations such as Fluxit with hundreds of LED tubes, Geraldin Pilgrim and Culture Creative's Flock of 175 glowing birds, a Firefly Field with 400 kinetic fireflies, and luminescent bluebonnets on the lawns. BBG staff collaborated with Culture Creative to create a woodland town square, a fountain of light, and Forest Dancers at Lily Pond Terrace. The Winter Cathedral will return as well.
