From 1708's website:

Organized by 1708 Gallery, InLight Richmond is the second annual exhibition of contemporary public art inspired by light. Downtown Richmond will be transformed by light inspired art installations presented in public spaces including sidewalks, walls, storefronts and buildings. The work will be selected by guest juror Adelina Vlas, Assistant Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art at the Philadelphia Museum of Art, and the exhibition will be opening the weekend of September 25-27, 2009 all over downtown Richmond.

This year's InLight promises to be even bigger than last year's- start making your plans to attend now!
