Hudson Yards inaugurates new traditions for the Holidays with a property-wide activation called Shine On.  Never before experienced on this scale, newly commissioned artwork by Christopher Schardt has been made specifically for Hudson Yards. This innovative light and sound experience is open from Nov 29th through January 5th. Each night’s display launches at 5 pm with a Shine On presentation on the plaza and in the Great Room, a delightful moment for people of all ages to gather together in celebration.

Christopher Schardt is an Oakland, California-based sculptor, musician and computer programmer, focusing on LED sculpture since 2013. His work was prominently featured in the exhibition No Spectators: The Art of Burning Man organized by the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum (March 2018 – January 2019). This exhibit traveled to Cincinnati Art Museum (April 2019 – September 2019) and Oakland Museum of California (October 2019 – February 2020). He has presented ambitious artworks at numerous cultural events including Burning Man, Electric Daisy Carnival, and Life Is Beautiful.
