An Interactive Lighting Controls Workshop

Don’t miss this dynamic, hands-on experience where YOUR solutions take center stage!

Be a vital part of the NYControlled Hands-On Workshop! This is an exciting opportunity to engage with participants through live demos, interactive training stations, and hands-on learning experiences. Showcase your latest innovations in lighting controls and demonstrate your technology in action.

Developed in collaboration with the Lighting Controls Academy (LCA), the NYControlled Hands-On workshop is led by C. Webster Marsh, Education Manager at the LCA and Lighting Controls Designer for Sladen Feinstein Integrated Lighting. This intensive training session will help professionals engage more deeply with control technologies, providing a strong foundation for the main exhibition day on Wednesday, October 15.

The workshop offers an active, 6-hour learning experience. Participants will assemble and interact with real systems from six leading manufacturers, gaining firsthand exposure to key components, workflows, and design strategies — all within a collaborative, expert-guided environment.
