It’s is a magical time of year, and nowhere is
that more evident than a Road Trip: Close to Home at the LuMagica light display at Harvest Moon Farm in
North Salem.
It is the biggest holiday light park in all of Westchester with more than 500,000
LED lights and music that pairs along. “You can expect a full immersive experience using every
sense that we can—visually, acoustically, we really wanted to incorporate all
that. There’s seven themed areas throughout the whole half-mile trail. We have
Arctic Freeze, we have Fallen Rock, there’s Candy Cane Lane, we have Keeping
the Tradition, Starry Night, and Into the Rainbow,” explains
Juan Novoa, LuMagica designer.
Novoa says family is the overarching
theme of this exhibit. “After a troubling year and a half, we really wanted to
bring this experience to everybody and really encompass that sense of family.
As you’ll see throughout the space, you’ll see a family of bears, a family of
lions, and even a soaring parrot tending to its nested eggs.”
The experience is about half a mile long, so you can walk through
in less than an hour - or just take your time and stroll. And after your walk through this winter
wonderland - be sure to grab a bite to eat or a hot drink.
