Thanks to Lauren Antonoff Hart for including
Lumonics in her CPR broadcast and in Denverite:
“Denver is a hub for immersive experiences. Long before ‘immersive art was trendy, Denver also had artists like Lonnie Hanzon, the creator of ‘Camp Christmas,’ and the late Dorothy and Mel Tanner, creators of Lumonics Light & Sound Gallery, who paved the way for experimental exhibitions.”
Imagine stepping into a world where glowing light sculptures, video art projection, and music converge to relax your body and engage your mind and emotions. The Lumonics team has transformed the warehouse into an intimate artistic setting. Each performance is new and orchestrated live.
Thanks to friend Alex Dozier for surprising us with this one-minute video after she attended Lumonics Immersed:
You may have seen some of the Lumonics light art at Meow Wolf Denver, McNichols Civic Center Building, the Museum of Outdoor Arts, Fiddler’s Green, DIA, Understudy Gallery +. We now welcome you to the source where over 75 light sculptures are on display, and part of the immersive experience presented on Friday and Saturday at 8 pm.
We present the most up-to-date form of the Lumonics expression that originated in 1969. Our intention is to expand the boundaries of sensory engagement and artistic expression, and honor Dorothy and Mel Tanner’s contribution to light art and the immersive experience.

“Entering Lumonics Gallery in Denver is like walking onto a spaceship. When the immersive show begins, it’s as if the spaceship is gearing up for takeoff. It’s trippy, for sure.”
– Kelly Hayes, Denver Gazette
“Nestled in a warehouse in Denver is one of the most unique artistic experiences I’ve had the pleasure of experiencing. By day, the building is home to the Lumonics Light & Sound Gallery — a space that serves as a permanent art installation for the futuristic light sculpture of artists Dorothy and Mel Tanner. But on weekends, the gallery hosts Lumonics Immersed, a mesmerizing and exciting series of live performances.”
– Toni Tresca, OnStage Colorado
“This place is such a hidden gem in Denver. The art here has a deep and fascinating history, and the Tanners built a true legacy around it. You can see how spaces like Meow Wolf and other immersive art experiences owe some of their inspiration to what Lumonics has been doing for decades.” – Tyler A.
“After an evening at Lumonics, you feel that ANYTHING is possible. “- Mitch W.

“If you’ve been by Lumonics Light & Sound Gallery, then you already know it’s unlike any other gallery in the city. Artist Dorothy Tanner sculpts amazing, impossible-to-describe works featuring light as a main component; the gallery also plays host to events that include music, meditation, Chinese Qigong,
and workshops on expanding your consciousness.”
