Sponsorship

 
Your sponsorship/contribution will help fund the Lumonics Field Trip Program and the Lumonics School of Light Art.
 
Lumonics, among the first and longest-running light art projects in the U.S., provides a unique setting of 75 light sculptures from a rotating collection of over 200, created by the late Light and Space artists, Dorothy and Mel Tanner.
 
Light sculptures, video art projection, and music merge to relax your body and engage your mind and emotions. The Tanners  originated this highly-acclaimed multisensory experience in 1969, and it continues to evolve, communicating in a universal language of music and visuals.  
 
“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.”
– Marc Billard/ Barry Raphael
 
The field trips and the guided tours are a merging 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: Students of All Ages
1. From kindergarteners to seniors in assisted living 
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) (we are community partners with the Denver Public Schools Foundation).
 
 
 
 

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 to attending. The funding would go toward covering the expenses in preparing and presenting the field trips. We 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.

Thank you for your consideration.

Lumonics is a community member of the Neuroarts Resource Center:
“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.”
 

“Because the brain is agile, exposure to arts of all kinds fosters interconnectivity across a vast and complex network populated by hundreds of billions of neurons, influencing how we process and perceive creative experiences.”

Community Partners:

Oneness Care, a 501(c)(3) Public Charity, creates space to experience art and music as a way to promote health, education, and wellness. Our affiliation with the Lumonics Light and Sound Gallery and the Lumonics School of Light Art helps us provide these services to students of all ages, the elderly, and marginalized populations through their programs and events. Access to the arts is paramount to well-being and the investigation of one’s overall oneness.
