Innovative programming crosses age and language barriers fostering cultural education, connection and community
BELLEVUE, Wash., Jan. 24, 2023 /PRNewswire/ -- Shoppers at The Bellevue Collection, a super-regional upscale shopping center, were given the experience to engage with a twenty-foot immersive screen with just a wave of the hand. The Season of Celebrations exhibit showcased the diversity of the surrounding community by highlighting Las Posadas, Hannukah, Christmas, Kwanzaa, and Oshogatsu (Japanese New Year) during the month of December.
The interactive digital display brought fun, learning, and technology together to celebrate the season. This unique and first-to-market experience reflected elements and symbols of these cultural celebrations. Designed to be educational and inspiring, the artful program resonated with guests of all ages, crossing cultural and language barriers – allowing guests to choose their own journey of discovery. By interacting with the screen using hand gestures, shoppers could visually experience unique traditions of seasonal celebrations, such as the daily candle lighting for Hannukah and Kwanzaa and the breaking of piñatas for Las Posadas. The emphasis was on creating colorful pieces of digital custom art that represented the beauty of each celebration, thus attracting guests to explore a celebration of another culture.
"This innovative program was all about cultural celebrations coming alive in a new way for guests to discover and learn," said VP of Marketing for The Bellevue Collection Jennifer Leavitt. "With the support of local cultural non-profits, the experience is truly magical, educational, entertaining, and one of a kind. This interactive technology, with a blend of cultural inclusivity, allowed us to provide an inspirational experience to our guests."
Successful collaboration with cultural organizations, Centro Cultural Mexicano, Stroum Jewish Community Center, Kinara Park Kids, and Wing Luke Museum, was instrumental to this project. This digital project was developed by the marketing team of The Bellevue Collection, in partnership with The Voyager Group, illustrated by Rachel Deitsch of evocativ.co and brought to life by interactive designers at NOIRFLUX.
