As part of its Nov. 8 Art on Tap event, The Westmoreland Museum of American Art will flip the switch on its first Winter Lights Installation.

Art on Tap: Winter Lights is scheduled from 5 to 8 p.m. and will including strolling through an “immersive, ethereal light display,” according to a release, created by LUXE Creative.

“It’s really the cantilever (second floor exhibition gallery) that started as (our) inspiration. It’s such a wonderful canvas,” says Anne Kraybill, the museum’s Richard M. Scaife Director/CEO.

Plans include a changing light show, along with traditionally wrapped and decorated holiday trees.

“We hope to do a countdown at 6:30 p.m. and flip (the lights) on,” Kraybill says.

The lights will be on a timer and continue to add “sparkle” to the winter season after dusk through February, she says.

During the event, guests also will enjoy a specialty hot chocolate and can get cozy at a s’mores bar fire pit.

“If the weather holds, we will do that outdoors on the terrace, kind of like a winter lounge,” Kraybill says.

A winter-themed art scavenger hunt in the galleries will complete the evening.

Tickets are $15 and include one drink.
