North Texas Holiday Light-A-Holics

Welcome to the North Texas Holiday Light-A-Holics Workshop page! We are a collective of individuals primarily based in the North Texas region who take pleasure in creating animated light displays for our communities to appreciate. We gather monthly from February through September on the 4th Saturday of every month and hold our NTXHLWorkshop every other year. We are thrilled that you have discovered us and hope you'll participate in one of our monthly meetings and our NTXHLWorkshop.

2026 NTXHL Workshop

We provide various educational options for members from beginning to advanced. Our extensive curriculum includes a wide range of classes designed to meet the diverse needs of our members. We offer classes on everything from prop building, video projection, and lighting storage. Each course is tailored to ensure that participants gain practical skills and a deeper understanding of the subject matter. Whether you are just starting out or looking to refine your expertise, we have something for everyone.

Classroom Discussion
Live Demonstration

During the workshop, there are classes that will allow you to have hands-on experience on how to build an array of lighting items. Many of our facilitators, who are seasoned professionals in the industry, will have actual products for you to sample during the workshop. Some vendors even offer pickup at the workshop for purchases that you complete online, ensuring that you can take home your selected items immediately.

Enjoy the friendship and community that you find at our workshop. We are truly lucky to have some of the premier facilitators here in the Dallas area, each bringing their unique expertise and passion to the table. Our workshops not only offer an opportunity to learn and grow, but also provide a space for connection and inspiration, where individuals from all walks of life come together to share ideas and experiences.
