The River Lights project is a new platform to jumpstart the contemporary arts and culture scene in Melaka after nearly a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, said Melaka Historic City Council (MBMB) mayor Datuk Zainal Abu.

To date, the project has gathered more than 30 artists from various creative fields such as sculpture, weaving, light and stage performances.
