I've been at Cheekwood many times and every time I visited with my family or friends I seen different exhibits and activities which keep me going back every year. Last year we went the Treehouses exhibits with my parents-in-law. So far one of my favorite was the Chichuly exhibit and Light this year. It was one of a kind that I look forward to do things with hubby and parents-in-law. This year my parents-in-law has no chance to see the light show as they both busy and had limited time when they come down in Tennessee.
ROMANTIC:
Hubby and I spent friday night at Cheekwood, we arrived around 7 and the parking space are full. We parked outside the Cheekwood were they have a parking space if needed like this kind of events. I was so excited like a child and the place is so romantic at dark with a combination of LED light and sound effects as we looked around in the water-towers.It has an ethereal music was has been hanging throughout the audio speakers in every single tower and added such a real great ambiance.
TIPS:
Well, I have simple tips if you want to visit the Light: Bruce Munro at Cheekwood. It is not really a lot but maybe would give you an idea if you're planning to visit: The worst we forget is the bug spray-just imagine it. Actually is not really bad if you're not attracted with the bugs.hehehhe.
- Bring spray bugs.
- If you want a discount ticket: buy online ticket in their website.
- Bring your friends or family and have some picnic there. I seen people bringing picnic basket and enjoy the ambiance with their friends or family.
- the extended hour are Wednesday, Thursday and Friday evenings from 4:30 until 11:00 p.m
The exhibit looks like when it is not dark:
