Get ready to disco down memory lane with "Retro Reverie," an 8 ft tall signage installation that channels the vibrant spirit of 70s retro hotel and diner signs. Bursting with groovy pink and teal hues, this larger-than-life creation is the ultimate backdrop for friends, families, and anyone seeking an insta-worthy experience against pure funk and fun.

Tyler Lemermeyer (Bowling alley)
"Nostalgic Strikes" is an immersive art piece that pays homage to the past while infusing a vibrant retro vibe into the present. Inspired by the aesthetic charm of bowling lanes from bygone eras and the ground mural surrounding it, this artwork invites viewers to embark on a journey through time, indulging in a delightful blend of ombre colours.
