Immersive climate-inspired event designed by PCA&D and ALT students

Live X Earth Night at West Arts event behind the scenes

Lancaster is about to experience its first Earth Night - a one-of-a-kind immersive performance and dance party where the planet's four elements come to life through hypnotic visuals, original choreography, and pulsating electronic dance music.

Held at West Art’s City Hall, this extraordinary evening is shaped in part by the creative talent of PCA&D & ALT students.

Student Talent at the Heart of Earth Night

Earth Night Lancaster is a showcase of next-generation creative talent. Students studying the Live Experience Design & Production degree program are working with Lancaster-based design and production company Nimblist as part of a master class on designing and producing live entertainment, applying their growing skillsets and gaining real-world collaborative experience.

Students will bring each element of the evening to life, from immersive visual environments to live technical production. Joining the students is a lineup of established Lancaster-area artists:

Choreography: Lauren Tait & Lydia Beam of FRWRD Dance Company, and Emmanuel Williams, Founder of Luna Dance
Costumes: Stacey Steffes, Owner of Studio Envy and Drift Spa
Music: DJs Silk Noir and Skii, weaving orchestral and classical elements into electronic dance beats
Visual Imagery contributed by renowned artist Linda Strawberry and award-winning filmmaker Andrea Campbell of Natural Light Films

Support by Rock Lititz-based and regional production suppliers are also making this night possible; Atomic, Clair, FUSE, Image SFX, Main Light, TAIT, Triode & 4Wall.

A Global Movement, Now in Lancaster

Founded eight years ago by DJs For Climate Action (DJs4CA), Earth Night was built on the bold conviction that nightlife can inspire climate action. Celebrated globally during Earth Day week, the event unites artists and communities around a shared belief: music is a powerful force for environmental change.

In partnership with the official Earth Day Organization, all proceeds from Earth Night Lancaster will support the Lancaster Conservancy in its mission to protect local land, as well as DJs4CA, furthering this global movement.
