1708 Gallery’s InLight, the annual public exhibition of contemporary art that is experienced at night, will shine a singular spotlight this fall on Super!Giant!Jump!Star!, the long-awaited grand premiere of artist George Ferrandi’s multidisciplinary project: Jump!Star. In a first for InLight, the 2025 edition will focus exclusively on a single artistic vision—Ferrandi’s immersive Jump!Star—and will feature a special outdoor performance by the Richmond Symphony, transforming Abner Clay Park into a celestial gathering of light, sound, and ceremony.

Super!Giant!Jump!Star! at 1708’s InLight will feature 12 ceremonial sculptures that will be experienced through a processional dance and as free standing sculptures. Additionally, the Richmond Symphony will join to present a free, signature Big Tent concert featuring the world premiere of composer Jherek Bischoff's original score written for Jump!Star!, along with additional works inspired by its cosmic themes. InLight will also feature performances by Mirah and Futurelove Sibanda.

Join us October 17th and 18th from 7 - 11 PM as Richmond becomes a site of interstellar celebration.
