Luminasia and the LA County Fair 2014
Growing up, my family would visit the LA County Fair just as the
new school year would begin each September.

Besides the rides, entertainment, and of course food,
we would see the new exhibits the fair would have each year.
This year, Luminasia is a new nighttime attraction.
It's a larger-than-life Chinese lantern display,
which is an ancient art form of lantern making.

It's an awesome exhibit
