“Sky Song” is a two-part interactive sculpture, which blends light and sound through interaction with the viewer, and even the sky above. Comprised of mirror-polished stainless steel, “Sky Song” invites viewers to create music by pressing any combination of 33 buttons on an eight-foot-tall sculpture on the plaza. This kiosk linked to its companion piece 30 feet away on the building’s façade. During concerts at Levitt Pavilion, this interactive function transitions from sound to light. With 25 lights and bells, “Sky Song” is an endlessly engaging public artwork.

This event is free and open to the public. A full schedule of both free and paid shows can be found at www.levittdenver.org.
