About LAiPS
Light & Art in Public Spaces (LAiPS) is an EU project that aims to strengthen city capacities for permanent light art installations in public spaces. It fosters transnational cooperation among cities, exchanges best practices, and utilizes innovative digital tools.
Led by LUCI, this 3-year project is funded by the Creative Europe programme and includes the cities of Lyon, Oulu, and Turin.
