Burlington County Hosting Magic Lantern Performance Festival and Exhibit

MOUNT HOLLY – Take a step back in time and marvel at the beauty and atmosphere of 19th century entertainment during Burlington County’s Art of the Magic Lantern performance festival and exhibit.

“Before movies, televisions and videos were invented, there were magic lantern shows offering a fantastic mix of art, theater, science and music,” said Burlington County Commissioner Allison Eckel, the liaison to the Department of Resource Conservation and Parks. “We’re excited to give Burlington County residents and visitors the opportunity to experience this art, its history, and the science behind it, through live performances and a gallery exhibit organized by our Burlington County Parks System.”
