Holiday Light Art Exhibit is Coming to Brighten Georgetown

The public can help the light artists with their exhibits to be displayed starting Dec. 12.

It’s easy to embrace the holidays with lights of all color varieties hanging on homes, businesses, and even in special exhibits.

The Georgetown BID will be hosting a light art exhibit, GLOW, from 6 to 10 p.m. Dec. 12 to 14. Seven local, regional and international light artists will be featured in this year’s illuminating event.

Guests will stroll along M Street, the Book Hill section on the 1600 block of Wisconsin Avenue, Washington Harbour, and plaza spaces of M street to see the innovative use of lights.
