MEDIA
GET THE SCOOPMedia
We produce a number of free, fun and safe media-worthy events and art installations every year. Capture us as shoppers are immersed in millions of bubbles, surrounded by chalk art masterpieces, covered under a canopy of colorful umbrellas, blanketed by snowfall, greeted by favorite film stars, serenaded by national artists like BØRNS, Buckcherry, Pop Evil, Drowning Pool, Fuel, The Struts, Dreamers, and more.
For all media inquiries, please contact Heather Edge, Marketing Director, at hedge@vestar.com or (602) 553-2660.
