OLLU community can reserve free tickets for Holiday Laser Show

The Holiday Laser Show is a multimedia spectacular of technology artforms with choreographed laser beams, colorful 3-D animation and light effects set to traditional holiday favorites and original electronic compositions. URBAN-15 once again is featuring the genius work of the Laser Wizard, Tim Walsh, with what has become the newest traditional holiday event. This show is a blending of high-tech laser projections, animations, and beam work, all choreographed with holiday musical favorites. The show also features collaborative works of Tim Walsh and George Cisneros.

Tickets are free but limited. Early reservations are recommended.

URBAN-15 began in 1974 as an experimental performance ensemble with 15 artists – electronic music composers, dancers, conceptual artists, and environmental sculptors – using the city as our stage and canvas. After 50 years as an arts group and 39 as a non-profit, URBAN-15 is still using the city as a canvas for street dancers, drummers and media artists.
