Assembly Row unveiled its unique holiday lighting installation on Saturday night. Rather than just putting up another holiday tree, Assembly Row commissioned the team behind the Illuminus festivals to create an installation that surrounds and lights up the destination’s iconic feature, its three, huge metal trusses.The installation – which includes cabins, lights, sleds and faux hills – was constructed entirely from reclaimed materials – wood, iron, metal, etc. – sourced from within a 20-mile radius. It befits the Somerville vibe, Assembly history and the trusses themselves, which were reclaimed from the old Assembly plant.

Somerville Mayor Joe Curtatone, Illuminus’ Jeff Grantz and Assembly Row general manager Matt Ehrie were on hand for the unveiling of the installation. Karson and Kennedy from Mix 104.1 were also in attendance as emcees for the “Light Up The Row” festivities.
