Lightning in a Bottle 2016: Bottle’s full, but the lightning’s still there
One thing that LIB does better than any other festival (outside of Burning Man) is the combination of art installations and immersive environments. From sunsets atop Meditation Lookout to the giant telescope at the Black Rock Observatory, from comedy and improv at the Jive Joint to burlesque and cabaret at Amori’s, from the First Annual Do LaB Soap Box Derby Invitational to a Rube Goldberg Machine-esque Bowling Alley in a ravine, it’s impossible to not be blown away by all that LIB has to offer the eyes.
