Shine: Loxton Christmas Lights Spectacular - illuminart stories in light

Shine: Loxton Christmas Lights Spectacular

Loxton South Australia from 17th -24th December, 2021

Shine Little Town Christmas 2021 was a Christmas Lights Spectacular held on the grounds of the St Peters Lutheran Church in Loxton South Australia.

Shine was a fully illustrated and animated 8 minute Christmas lights experience, designed specifically to be projected on to the majestic St Peters Church.

Utilising the skills of local artists, professional illustrators and animators from nationally acclaimed illuminart, the production of Shine showcased all the local region has to offer.

From the river, to fields of wheat, vineyards and local tourist attractions, celebrating Loxton as the Christmas Town, Shine also interwove the Nativity story into an inspiring production beloved by all the family.

A dazzling display of lights, colour and community togetherness, showcasing local and emerging artists in this new outreach initiative.
