The Wild Center in Tupper Lake has announced the fifth season of Wild Lights which runs from November 29 to February 22, 2025.
The evening experience transforms The Wild Center’s 115-acre campus into a winter wonderland, with thousands of bulbs and a variety of activities and displays. This family-friendly winter event offers a chance to experience The Wild Center in a new light.
Visitors can look forward to a New Immersive Projection Experience. Visitors can explore Wild Lights like never before with indoor and outdoor immersive projection art installations by Echo, an Adirondack artist and co-founder of The Station in Onchiota. Snack at the Mobile Sugar Shack: the shack will be converted into a food truck, serving hot and cold treats at The Wild Center’s patio space.
Wild Lights Light Lager: Raquette River Brewing’s festive creation will be returning and can be purchased at The Wild Center, as well as in-store and on tap at Raquette River Brewing Co. and other local stores. Forest Music: the looped trail with over 130 trees wrapped in colorful lights synchronized to a 10-track musical compilation from Whatever Penny entitled Songs for an Old Pine Forest. Lit Photo Ops: oversized neon bird wings that provide a perfect photo op and other new illuminated sculptures guide visitors through the different paths and trails. The Wild Supply Co. will be available for shopping, and indoor experiences will be open, including Planet Adirondack and the Living River Trail, where guests can watch North American River Otters play.
Located in Tupper Lake, NY, The Wild Center uses science-based experiences, exhibits and programs to open new ways to look into the relationship that people have with nature and to promote environmental best practices.
