The Chestnut Hill Conservancy is pleased to present our fourth annual Night of Lights! This year’s Night of Lights takes the form of an extended public art installation activating Germantown Avenue and transforming Chestnut Hill’s familiar main street into an interactive exhibition of local history and architecture.
Night of Lights is a truly participatory, community-based event, offering visitors and long-time residents a free and accessible opportunity to discover the history of the neighborhood, while becoming active participants in the stories being told. From 7 pm to 10 pm, every evening from October 9-25, historical images and films from the Conservancy’s Archives are projected through storefront windows along Germantown Avenue, with neighboring historic buildings illuminated by colored lights.
