Last night, we got to witness IllumiNATION light up Virginia Museum of History & Culture for its test run before the public showings next week.

This immersive projection experience transforms the museum's facade into a storytelling canvas, bringing moments from American history to life through light, imagery, and music.

Swipe through for highlights from the evening, along with a few behind-the-scenes moments from the setup and preparation that helped bring the experience to life.

And don't worry, you still have opportunities to see it yourself!

IllumiNATION officially starts next week, June 25-28 as part of the museum's free block party celebration leading up to America's 250th anniversary. Each evening features live music, food trucks, family activities, after-hours museum access, and the projection experience beginning at 9 PM.

We're proud to have played a key role in this exciting project and look forward to seeing more audiences experience it next week.
