The Long Night of Arts & Innovation was inspired by the Long Night of Science in our German sister city, Erlangen. The inaugural Riverside Long Night of Arts & Innovation was held on Thursday, October 4, 2012.

The 2013 event will also feature the most innovative technologies deployed by companies like Bourns Inc., Siemens, SolarMax Technologies, and the fire and police departments of the city of Riverside.
