Who hasn’t as a kid wandered into Spencer’s and marveled at the simple joys of staring at a black light poster as the colors vibrated with life on this two dimensional surface?
If you have not experienced this feeling or you are aching for the tug of nostalgia for this hold-over gimmick from the 1960s, then you must attend Fluorescent Black—the first big part of the summer of 2017 at the Grand Rapids Art Museum.
The black light is actually a very dark purple, drawing its light from the ultraviolet (UV) spectrum, and is invisible to the human eye. However, when you place anything white (t-shirts, teeth, etc.) or brightly fluorescent colored, it suddenly becomes alive with a glow-in-the-dark quality. Cool, huh?
This event’s dance experience will be hosted by WOODTV 8’s Rachael Ruiz and is powered by the beats of DJ’s A/B, Super Dre, Todd Ernst, DJ Composition, and DJ Snax with special guest appearances from DITA ( Dance In The Annex ), Rebel Kusco, and a fashion show from Iconoclasp & A/B.
Special pricing is available for those who purchase tickets in advance at this
site or pay full price at the door (if tickets are still available.)
