PVCC's annual outdoor exhibition of light-centered artworks illuminates the grounds surrounding the V. Earl Dickinson Building as the longest night of the year approaches. The exhibition features glowing art installations, performances and more.

Virginia Museum of Fine Arts will return with VMFA on the Road, An Artmobile for the 21st Century, now housed in a new, larger vehicle. The traveling gallery will show Love, Laughter, Tears: An Artist’s Guide to Emotions, featuring works of art from VMFA’s permanent collection. 

Please remember to bring your own flashlight and feel free to add to the festivities by dressing as an "enlightened being." In case of rain, Let There Be Light will be held on Saturday, Dec. 14, 2024, from 6-9 p.m
