Glow Weekend Illuminates Town, Attracts Visitors


 

The Georgetown Business Improvement District’s “Glow” event came and went last weekend, bringing temporary, illuminated art and a mass influx of visitors to Georgetown’s streets. Parking spaces were even harder to find than usual from 6 to 10 p.m. on Friday, Saturday and Sunday nights, as Georgetowners, Washingtonians and tourists wound their way through the neighborhood, using BID-provided maps to seek out light installations created by artists both international, such as Luisa Alvarez, and local, such as Zac Benson and Brian Davis.

BID communications director Rachel Cothran said the business group plans to continue the tradition annually, with longer-running installations and shows possible.
