Shine On Norlin

A nightly light projection show on the library facade celebrating the university's history and community stories.

Shine on Norlin is an ongoing event celebrating CU Boulder’s 150th anniversary with a large-scale light show projection on the west face of Norlin Library. Shine on Norlin is a canvas for the CU Boulder community to tell its stories. Through student artwork, historic imagery, video, music, research, innovation, performances, and creative storytelling, the installation highlights the people, moments, discoveries, and traditions that have shaped the university over the past 150 years while looking boldly toward its future. Projections light up Norlin Library nightly at dusk throughout October, from approximately 6:00–9:00 p.m.
