The Experience

The Experience

Factory360 planned, designed, and executed a multi-city Think Big Experience, transforming venues across Columbus, Hermiston, and Amazon HQ2 into immersive, hands-on STEM environments for students, families, and local communities. From museums and school campuses to a corporate headquarters, each activation reimagined everyday spaces as interactive playgrounds that sparked curiosity, creativity, and learning.

In Columbus, Ohio, COSI was transformed into a dynamic STEM experience for middle school students, kicked off by a welcome from OSU mascot Brutus and an opening session featuring inspiring speakers Mary Kish of Twitch and Dr. Marci Howdyshell of COSI. Students rotated through hands-on workshops—including coding, circuits, and robotics—paired with playful activities that blended learning and fun throughout the day.

At Hermiston High School and Amazon HQ2 during Amazon Community Day 2025, the Think Big Experience expanded to engage students, families, and community members of all ages. Interactive STEM zones featured everything from healthcare simulations and drone discovery to VR, robotics, and creative making stations, supported by local vendors and community partners. Branded giveaways and takeaways rounded out each event, reinforcing a shared spirit of thinking big, learning together, and building community.
