New solar artwork a hit at Union Street Party

We had a blast unveiling our new solar artwork with Art & Energy Collective at this year’s Union Street Party!
Sunlight Gathering invites people to sit, connect, and celebrate creativity and the magic of solar energy. The project sparked all sorts of conversations about the importance of solar power.
The artwork uses interactive pads in the floor and seat to trigger lights and is charged through a unique etched recycled solar panel. Hand-crafted embossed decorations were co-created with members of the local community through our PEC Pals network and PEC staff.
The artwork has been months in the making, starting with gathering ideas from the public at Hope Festival in June.
You’ll also spot Sunlight Gathering at other events later in the year, where it will spark curiosity, conversations, and a fresh look at the importance of solar power.
