Your sponsorship/contribution will help fund the Lumonics Field Trip Program:
Lumonics, among the first and longest-running light art projects in the U.S., provides a unique setting that offers a blend of artistic heritage, innovative installations, and a dedication to introducing this evolving art form to “students of all ages”.
The field trip is a blend of art and technology. The intent is to encourage attendees to exercise their imaginative powers and be inspired to go further in their endeavors.
Our Audience:
2. For the developmentally challenged (we are community partners with
Sample Supports)
3. For people seeking a substance-free and sober life (we are community partners with
The Phoenix).
4. Art Students that attend the
Lumonics School of Light Art (students have ranged in age from 8 to 85 so far)
One of the videos shown at Lumonics Immersed, Mountain Meditation 3 by Marc Billard, was accepted in the upcoming Tilting West: Defining A New Legacy Exhibition at the Arvada Center for the Arts and Humanities. The exhibit opens June 3 and ends on August 23, 2026. Here is an excerpt:
“The source material is Colorado car rides and hikes in the mountains, which I record using a mobile phone camera and/or Insta360 camera attached to the car window or mounted on the roof. I then transform the imagery in production, and add an original soundtrack. No AI!”– Marc Billard

Your sponsorship/contribution will help fund the field trip program, especially for the Title 1 Schools in Denver Metro where finances and school budgets are a barrier. The funding would go toward covering the expenses in preparing and presenting the field trips. W
e have a sliding scale from $250.00
to $150.00 or no charge for schools and organizations. Even $250 does not cover our costs. You can also sponsor a student to attend the 1-day class at the Lumonics School of Light Art.
We present the most up-to-date form of Lumonics. Our intention is to expand the boundaries of sensory engagement and artistic expression, and honor the Tanners’ contribution to light art and the immersive experience. Your support is appreciated.

Some links to further familiarize you with our project that began in 1969:
“Scientific studies increasingly confirm what human beings across cultures and throughout time have long recognized: we are wired for art. The arts in all of their modalities can improve our physical and mental health, amplify our ability to prevent, manage, or recover from disease challenges, enhance brain development in children, build more equitable communities, and foster well-being through multiple biological systems.”
