    SOMArts Galleries: Night Light - Multimedia Garden Party.

    Artists: Chelsea Akita, Christine Ancalmo, Jeremiah Barber, Dalius Baranauskas, Jesper Carlsen, Paul Clipson, Gail Dawson, Caitlin Denny, Alan Ellison, Mary Franck, Chen Hangfeng, Luke Judd, Kadet Kuhne, Andy Puls, Jeff Ray, Solarist Project, Maya Smira, Eric Staller, Andrea Steves, Elia Vargas, Jiang Zhuyun, Heather Cassils, Jenn Cohen, Sofía Córdova, Fernanda D'Agostino, Kiki Hunt, La Chica Boom aka Xandra Ibarra, Baby Barbarella aka Krisztina Lazar, Ileana Tejada, Kelsey Thorne, Sonni aka Linda Trunzo, Miami aka Cristina Victor, Pamela Z.

    Comment by AB: This annual nighttime extravaganza is more of an experience than an art show featuring video, performance, projections, participatory opportunities and more. Every room, every screen, every installation is an adventure, including a video swimming pool where you can be the lifeguard, an alter of exercise, a projection of a woman sleeping in a suitcase, an ode to Cuba, a pile of paintings on the floor, and much more. The event is sold out and well worth the modest admission fee of $12.
