ASTORIA – On World Autism Awareness Day, Sunday, April 2, the Carnival of Love Foundation (COLF) participated in Autism Speaks’ Light It Up Blue campaign whereby thousands of iconic landmarks, buildings, homes, and communities around the globe ‘light up blue’ in support of people living with autism.
COLF installed 5 custom, puzzle-piece skylines that will illuminate 30th Avenue in Greek-centric Astoria, in blue from April 1-30. The puzzle piece is the universal symbol for autism, and the blue represents support of the Autism Speaks Light It Up Blue campaign. COLF unveiled what will be an annual lighting installation at their “Light It Up Blue” event at Ovelia, in Astoria. The event was complimentary and open to all who support the effort to increase understanding and acceptance of people with autism.
