Frost Lights
(formerly BemaLights)
February 23-24, 2024
Experience winter in a new light!
On Friday, February 23rd and Saturday, February 24th, we invite the campus and community to experience the beauty of a New England winter with a new perspective. Join us in College Park on top of Observatory Hill between 6pm-midnight for an enchanting winter wonderland you won't forget, thanks to a remarkable interactive light and sound installation sponsored by the Programming Board, Collis After Dark, and the Office of Student Life.
NOTE: Please take care when enjoying Frost Lights! We've done our best to prepare the site, this is a wooded winter environment. Please watch where you are walking and wear shoes with good traction.
