Light Up Orinda!
Co-hosted by the Orinda Community Foundation

Light Up Orinda is a community beautification initiative co-hosted by the Orinda Community Foundation and spearheaded by two long-term Orinda residents with a vision to wrap trees in downtown Orinda with white LED lights during the winter season (November through January). This vision was inspired by the tree lights in Sleepy Hollow along Lombardy Lane and the holiday lighting in downtown Lafayette.
