Minnesota State Fair
Role: Graphic Design Intern
The Minnesota State Fair, known as the "Great Minnesota Get-Together," is one of the largest and most attended state fairs in the U.S., drawing nearly two million visitors each year.
As a Graphic Design Intern, I worked on a variety of projects that enhanced the fair’s visual experience. My responsibilities included designing and installing the Cats & Dogs exhibition, creating BINGO props, developing demonstration schedules, and more. These projects allowed me to contribute to large-scale public engagement while refining my skills in exhibit design, print materials, and event branding.

CATS & DOGS
Located inside the North End Event Center at the 2024 Minnesota State Fair, lies Cats and Dog The Exhibition. This exhibition is arranged to take visitors on a fun, sensory, and interactive journey. Using colors, materials, and selected furnishings, three different scenes are created, consisting of distinct environments that let visitors experience each universe. Cats & Dogs The Exhibition is devoted to understanding and decoding the behavior of our beloved, entertaining fluffy family members.
