TEXAS CHRISTIAN UNIVERSITY
The Story of Us
In 2023, Texas Christian University celebrated 150 years as a progressive and personal college for students with a dream to learn and lead. To commemorate its impressive history and bright future, TCU wanted an immersive experience that demonstrated what Horned Frogs can do when empowered to Lead On — together.
The Story of Us delivered on the monumentous ask with a pop-up museum that drew guests into TCU’s history via a multimedia experience.
Kicking off TCU’s 150th year, The Story of Us opened for a limited time on TCU’s campus and transformed its existing BLUU ballroom. Guests were greeted with a bold and immersive take on TCU’s 150 years with a projection-mapped history video. Then followed an artifact display that guided guests through the decades into a final space that celebrated TCU’s present achievements and goals for the future.
