Elevate begins with a Friday night event downtown

The Elevate arts program kicks off Friday night with “Banho de Luz” at the Carnegie Pavilion downtown. The AJC has the story.

A quote:

…four translucent quilts studded with LED lights will be hung at the beaux-arts Carnegie Education Pavilion in Hardy Ivy Park from 8-11 p.m. October 19. A combination of light and sound will create what Elevate organizers are calling a dramatic “light painting” set against the nighttime sky.

I’m looking forward to it. This Carnegie Pavilion, by the way, is composed of the columns that once lined the entrance to the downtown Carnegie library, where the current Central Library now stands. It’s located in Hardy Ivy Park at the corner of Peachtree and Baker Streets. Here’s a map.

It’s accessible from the Peachtree Center and Civic Center train stations and the #110 (Peach Bus) bus line.
