What's On - A focus on after dark delights for Spring
Become a Lumenator
Hundreds of local people will come together to create amazing outdoor art in the Dorset Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty this year, creating a collective connection to Dorset's remarkable landscape, as part of UK-wide celebration of creativity. Producer Activate Performing Arts and outdoor arts company Walk the Plank are recruiting one thousand local people to participate in a mass gathering in Dorset called Green Space Dark Skies. Th e production will see people come together with artists and creatives to forge powerful collective connections to the local landscape. Th e artworks will be created at dusk by participants from the local area, known as Lumenators. Guided along pathways or waterways and carrying smart lights, that are sensitive to the night-time environment, the beautiful digital choreography will be captured on fi lm and available to watch online afterwards. Th e artwork will imagine a new way of seeing the local landscape in Dorset and inspire people to care for the planet for future generations.
