Academy Street Artwork Projects (ASAP) presents GLOW, a temporary outdoor display of technology and light art installations on view in Downtown Cary. They are pop-up temporary installations with no corresponding event, on view primarily evening hours for one week, two weeks, or a month at a time. GLOW is designed with the intent to surprise and delight viewers when the artworks are discovered. Picture: rooftops, windows, open lawns, and on the sides of buildings! Around every corner is a possible discovery and surprise. GLOW will create a dynamic sense of place that adds energy to the street environment, creating memories and moments of celebration for all who encounter each work of art.
