Looking for something sparkly and bright to light up your crisp autumn nights? Look no further than the New York Botanical Garden's Chihuly Nights installation.

NYBG staff strategically placed lighting fixtures around the garden so that the sculptures appear illuminated at night. Only Neon 206 has a lighting component.
