新奥尔良第12届LUNA Fête灯光艺术节11月13日至15日举行：木偶巡游点亮市中心
新奥尔良市第12届LUNA Fête灯光艺术节于11月13日至15日举行，每晚5时至10时举行，主体活动免费向公众开放。艺术节由新奥尔良艺术委员会（Arts New Orleans）主办，活动范围从加利尔厅（Gallier Hall）延伸至意大利广场（Piazza d'Italia），其中意大利广场区域门票15美元、12岁及以下儿童免费。
今年的重头戏是木偶巡游（The Puppetry Parade），一支发光的巡游队伍将以灯光与巨型木偶点亮市中心街道。LUNA Fête是新奥尔良一年一度的夜间灯光艺术盛会，也是全美历史最久的大型投影映射艺术节，通过灯光装置、投影映射与现场表演，将历史建筑与公共空间变为露天艺术展场。
今年的艺术节恰逢美国建国250周年系列庆祝活动期间，主办方希望以光影艺术连接社区、吸引市民与游客夜间走进市中心。
艺术节期间，市中心多个街区将实施临时交通管制，公众可搭乘公共交通前往。主办方提醒，活动为户外进行，请留意天气变化并提前规划行程。完整节目单与巡游路线可查询新奥尔良艺术委员会官网。
New Orleans' 12th LUNA Fête Light Festival Runs November 13 to 15: The Puppetry Parade Lights Up Downtown
The 12th LUNA Fête, New Orleans' festival of light, art and technology, runs from November 13 to 15, from 5 to 10 p.m. nightly, with most programming free and open to the public. Presented by Arts New Orleans, the festival stretches from Gallier Hall to the Piazza d'Italia, where admission is 15 dollars and children aged 12 and under enter free.
This year's centerpiece is The Puppetry Parade, an illuminated procession bringing light and giant puppets to the downtown streets. LUNA Fête is the city's annual nighttime light-art celebration and the nation's longest-running large-scale projection mapping festival, turning historic buildings and public spaces into an open-air gallery through light installations, projection mapping and live performance.
This year's festival falls during the celebrations marking the 250th anniversary of the founding of the United States, and organizers hope the art of light will connect the community and draw residents and visitors downtown after dark.
Several downtown blocks will be under temporary traffic controls during the festival, and the public is encouraged to use public transit. Organizers remind visitors that the event takes place outdoors and advise checking the weather and planning trips in advance. The full program and the parade route are available on the Arts New Orleans website.
