In 2024, we began the Lumonics Legacy Project to ensure the future of Lumonics and preserve the 200+ artworks.
Lumonics is among the first and longest-running light art projects in the US., founded by the late artists, Dorothy and Mel Tanner. They began their light art at the same time as the Light and Space Movement got underway in the 1960s, and were part of an art movement they never heard of!
Our goal is to create an art center for all the light sculptures. It will include a performance space where we continue the immersive experiences pioneered by the Tanners, and present them to students, seniors, and the general public, and organize a group of sculptures for a traveling exhibit.
Donations of any amount are greatly appreciated!
We will reciprocate for your donation.
Thank you,

Our dear friend, Lisa Wimberger, founder of The Neurosculpting Institute in Denver, introduced us to Sarah and Zander Thiele. They founded Setl which combines VR technology, immersive art experiences, and Atmos dolby surround sound to deliver wellness experiences made of intentionally composed music and art.
Sarah and Zander visited Lumonics on Wed, June 18, 2025, and we had a wonderful time conversing with them and taking them on a tour of Lumonics including a mini-immersive experience.
We look forward to collaborating with them in the future.
Sarah and Zander
