Large works of art are on display in downtown Louisville. Saturday crews worked on a candy house luminary in the lobby of the Kentucky Center for the Arts.
The house is made of fabric that's covering framework and is lit from the inside. Luminaries can be as tall as 17 ft. tall and almost 20 ft. wide.
This is the first time luminaries are on American soil and they have already proved quite popular overseas.
"They actually originated in mainland China. For many years, Chinese have been making beautiful lanterns and those lanterns have traditionally been in the shapes of pagodas and temples and various different displays. Over the years, they just started making very large displays and outdoor exhibits and made wonderland parks that you can walk through," said Mike Wilson, International Special Attractions.
The luminary is on display at the Kentucky Center for the Arts. In a few days, another luminary in the shape of a Santa globe will be on display in the conservatory inside the Galt House.
