About this event
An evening event that layers light and sound over autumn wildflowers and natural-material decorations, turning the park into a story told across seven areas. Along the way are colorful light photo spots inspired by local spring water and the area's old textile trade, a "secret base" with play equipment made of thinned timber and natural instruments, and seating made from upcycled materials where you can eat from food trucks. With lantern-making and other workshops on weekends, it seems a good fit for an early-evening walk with kids.
