What is a Field Trip to the Lumonics Light & Sound Gallery Like?
Lumonics is a multi-sensory environment of light sculptures, video art projection, and music. Your body is relaxed, and the right side of your brain (the creative, emotional side) is at full stimulation. It is intended to bring you into a state of comfort and expanded awareness.

The Light and Sound Immersion
Lumonics Immersed is an innovative approach to art and creativity, and can be a memorable and transformative experience.
We provide the setting so the students can exercise their imaginative powers and hopefully be inspired to go further in their endeavors.
The Elements:
Mel and Dorothy Tanner’s Light Sculptures
Original Special Effects, Music, and Projection
Lighting and the Effects Orchestrated Live by Lumonics’ Marc Billard
While the field trip can benefit every curriculum, it has specific application to:
Art – the introduction of an art form involving several disciplines
Science – an art form that utilizes technology including lasers, electronics, and LEDs
Language Arts – a universal language of light and sound.
It is an opportunity for the students to describe what they experience, both orally and in writing. They are welcome to bring sketch books and journals, and take photos.
Lumonics is the creation of artists Dorothy Tanner (1923-2020) and Mel Tanner (1925-1993).
Mrs. Tanner was the recipient of the 2018 Denver Mayor’s Award for Innovation in the Arts.
The field trip can be tailored to meet the specific needs of the students.
