Crafting Culture: How Experience Designers Shape Our World

Description:

Attractions and destinations aren't just places—they're vibrant cultural hubs that influence and bring communities together. At the center of crafting these experiences into cultural narratives and community identities are experience designers and creators. Hear from the creative and cultural leaders behind experiences like The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, Airbnb Experiences, Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge, Las Vegas Raiders Allegiant Stadium Tour, and communities like the World Experience Organization — all of whom are working to stimulate local economies and strengthen community bonds.
