Troy Glow is a dazzling winter lighting festival, featuring light art installations
throughout Troy’s downtown commercial district.
Troy Glow features beautiful outdoor installations of light-based art created by regional artists. In addition, partner organizations create their own unique light displays. Troy Glow sites illuminate a walkable route through historic downtown Troy in the darkest month of the year.
Troy Glow was created by partners at the Arts Center of the Capital Region, Troy Cultural Alliance, and the Rensselaer County Chamber of Commerce to bring visitors, shoppers, and diners back to downtown Troy after two years of pandemic precautions when many people moved to online commerce, frequent take-out, and virtual events.
