Magic is in the air! Lancaster's magnificent heritage and history will come to life as artists, audiences and families light up its city centre creating a FREE trail of wonder, joy, belonging and fun. From November 2-4, across three unforgettable nights, Lancaster’s long and fascinating heritage will be illuminated by light art, workshops and activities which are family friendly, accessible and FREE. Art with heart – not empty spectacle! From 5pm to 9pm each evening, the city centre, its historic buildings and locations, will be transformed by enchanting light art installations, events and captivating lighting – for everyone to enjoy. It will be a memorable three nights with an inspirational mix of playfulness, ingenuity, fantasy and thoughtfulness. The star of the show will be Lancaster’s heritage but seen and understood in an entirely fresh light – guaranteed to warm hearts and minds on cold November nights!
What we'll deliver:
Why it's a great idea:
Our event will bring together people to celebrate, enjoy and appreciate the special heritage of Lancaster and view their city in a completely new way. This will create a strong sense of community pride and togetherness as people discover how magical it is when heritage, culture and creativity converge. The creativity of the event will provide the magic to fire the imagination and help stimulate unique experiences for our audiences and participants. In particular, the free, accessible and engaging programme will help connect people, in a rewarding, tangible and enjoyable way, with their location, heritage and history. Being primarily an outdoor activity, in places and locations free of barriers to participation, which involves an evening stroll through the city centre, the event will generate a great sense of health and wellbeing. And young people will be inspired and their imaginations ignited by experiencing unique artworks in familiar settings.

VolunteerMIRADOR
Mirador is a charity which celebrates and is inspired by people discovering how magical it is when arts, heritage and culture converge.
Based in Lancashire, we are a highly experienced team that blends its expertise and know how to originate, research, develop and deliver fascinating and rewarding heritage projects that matter to communities.
We are guided by some basic principles and approaches:
Our starting point is helping connect people, in a rewarding, tangible and enjoyable way, with their location, heritage and history. Our role as creative producers is to ensure that all engagement and participation becomes a rich celebration of people’s memories, their cultural traditions and communities, their collections and their localities as well as the monuments to the past such as buildings and landscapes.
We do this by ensuring the ‘journey through time’ provides people of all ages with absorbing, enjoyable, aspirational and challenging opportunities to test, try, train and develop their ideas in connection with their local heritage. And what makes our approach to achieving this so distinctive is that arts and creativity provide the magic to fire the imagination and help stimulate unique results.
Our proposition is to deliver a creative learning journey for all to help all participants discover and celebrate their heritage and the heritage of where they live.
At the conclusion of the extensive engagement programme, all the work/material created is distilled into an enchanting and wondrous celebration or event as part of a journey in animated heritage. In this way, we help people create a magical and memorable experience.
