IllumiNature, a brand-new outdoor spectacle from Playhouse Arts Follow the light. Discover the wonder. Illuminate nature.

On the evening of August 28, beneath the glow of the full moon, Playhouse Arts invites you to step into IllumiNature, a twilight spectacle from Playhouse Arts transforming the trails of Carlson Park into a magical journey of light, art, and imagination.

Join us through riverside paths led by giant puppets and glowing lanterns. Along the way, hidden artistic encounters await, from live performances and interactive installations to a grand finale featuring shadow puppetry and riverfront spectacle, created by local artists James Hildebrandt, Laura Muñoz, Carissa Clark, Katie Belknap, James Zeller, David Ferney, Victoria Timoteo, Alexandra Hilsee, Nicholas Simone, Jacqueline Dandeneau, and more.

This immersive experience brings together art, nature, and community in a one-night-only celebration of 20 Years as Playhouse Arts. Follow the lanterns and walk the circle, where light becomes shadow, and shadow becomes light.

There will also be a series of free community lantern building workshops on August 8, 16, 22, and 23.

Redwood Region Audubon Society will be offering a free public field trip at the Arcata Marsh and Wildlife Sanctuary.

Bring your binoculars and enjoy the incredible views of Humboldt Bay, easy-to-walk trails, and a great diversity of birdlife!
