Thirty five local and international artists are coming together for what is being called a nighttime festival in Detroit. Kind of hard to materialize what that means, but think lights, projections, installations all throughout the night. And bikes! Lit up bikes are being encouraged which sounds kind of fun. The festival is taking place throughout Midtown October 5 to 6. Their are many scheduled events and workshops which you can get details on on the DLECTRICITY website. The Detroit version of this festival is inspired by similar festivals happening around the world, a view of which can be had below from a similar event in NYC. It gives a nice little teaser for what will come in the Detroit version:
