Given the prompt to create an experience inspired by one of the natural and ancient wonders of the world, our group reimagined the Northern Lights. Our experience follows the journey of two unlikely friends in an exhibit rich with regional history and science, while promoting collaboration and the magic of storytelling.

This project advanced to semifinals in the 2019 Disney Imaginations Competition.
