Shining the Light Fantastic! Our amazing Arts Leaders involved in a first for Penryn and Cornwall!

Penryn will see an original light show projected onto the walls of Penryn Town Hall this weekend (Saturday October 1st  8-10pm).  It’s a real highlight of the town’s 800^th birthday celebrations. And all from images created by our Arts Leaders! Wow!

Images for the light show have been created from photographs taken and edited by Penryn College students. The images feature current pupils and aspects of the school building, as well as animations of historical figures associated with the town’s history.

Our art leaders have been working with artists and an anthropologist from Luxmuralis, the genius behind awesome light shows all over the country! We can’t wait!
