The Virginia Museum of Fine Arts knows a popular local event when it sees one.

1708 Gallery’s always wondrous light installation known as InLight Richmond is partnering with VMFA for this year’s eighth annual event to be held on Nov. 13 at the museum campus. The grounds will stay open from 7 a.m. to midnight in honor of the free event, according to a press release. This year’s juror is Alex Baker, director at Fleisher/Ollman Gallery in Philadelphia.

A perfect photo-op for the smartphone-wielding masses, InLight has built an impressive following over the years. The event has featured 190 local, national and international artists and artist collectives in some of Richmond’s most unique neighborhoods, engaging more than 30,000 visitors, according to the release.

This unique, popular event draws a wide variety of visitors and artists alike every year. For more information on the event and to apply as an artist, visit the 1708 Gallery website.
