Northern Lights Coming to Stamford

Kari Kola, Nordic Artist Lights Up Mill River Park

There is something magical coming to the Mill River Park - a community event to embrace winter and to experience the park in a unique and unexpected way.

Kari Kola, world renowned light artist, brings his vision to Stamford. Kari Kola has garnered accolades for his light installations in Paris, Prague and most notably for Stonehenge in the UK. 

Nette Compton, President and CEO of Mill River Park Collaborative tells us, “We were interested in embracing winter and to offer a unique way to activate the park in what is usually a quiet time. So, we looked to Scandinavian artists for inspiration and we found the visionary, Kari Kola.”

In partnership with Fernando Luis Alvarez – artist and curator, this project is near and dear to once again partner with the Stamford community in a downtown location.

The pop-up installation will take place in January or February, based on weather conditions. Sign up or follow Mill River Park Cooperative for details. The event is Free. You won’t want to miss this fantastic opportunity.

Kari Kola 's art installation in Mill River Park invites you to slow down in order to respond and experience a space in a distinctive and transformative mode.
