Brighten your winter with Cistern Illuminated, an immersive light and sound installation in the Buffalo Bayou Park Cistern. This annual tradition transforms the underground decommissioned drinking water reservoir into a breathtaking spectacle, showcasing the Cistern’s repeating columns and their uncanny reflections on the surface of the water below. A unique and original soundscape follows the moving lights around the cavernous Cistern.

This special installation provides a unique perspective on this cavernous underground space, amplifying its 221 columns and seemingly infinite reflection. Cistern Illuminated is designed by Houston artist/engineer Kelly O’Brien of Fenris.
