Watch: Impossible Light

The Golden Gate Bridge gets all the glory. But since the 2013 public art project The Bay Lights, the other bridge in town is just as iconic. Artist Leo Villareal's sculpture lights up the western span of the Bay Bridge with 25,000 LED lights hung from the suspension cables on the bridge. 

It is a beautiful sight, but the story of how it came to be is equally as compelling. One of my favorite films from this year's San Francisco International Film Festival was Impossible Light, the story of The Bay Lights public art project. 

This Sunday at 6pm the film will air on KQED, our local PBS station. Don't miss it!
