From 20 to 29 November 2026, excluding the 23rd and 24th, the Norval Foundation in Tokai, Cape Town, will host 'The Art of Light,' featuring light installations by LUMENOCITY. This event showcases the artworks within the foundation’s gardens, integrating them with trees, lawns, and meandering paths, thus moving them away from their typical urban environment. Instead of a standard gallery setup, it offers an outdoor exploration that visitors can navigate at their leisure, lasting around 60 to 90 minutes.
