Shining a Fifth Third Brighter at BLINK
This year, Fifth Third is demonstrating our commitment to BLINK by returning with our third installation. The festival, held in Cincinnati, Ohio, is one of the nation’s largest light and art festivals. The four-night, 30-city-block event inspires innovation and creativity through music, street art, projection mapping and light-based art installations.
Proud To Be a BLINK Artist
In 2019 we partnered with Brave Berlin to create re:Fraction—a ground-breaking, immersive projection mapping experience.
In 2022, we worked alongside Big Art to transform Fountain Square—one of Cincinnati’s most recognizable landmarks—into a spectacular landscape of color, light and sound.
This year, we’re going even bigger to inspire and light up our community.
Help us create something amazing this year
Celebrating 166.7 years of opening doors
Since 1858, Fifth Third has been opening doors of opportunity for changemakers seeking to make our city a better place to live, work and play. OPEN, this year’s installation, is both a celebration of the transformation Fifth Third has helped to fuel in the Cincinnati region, and a tribute to the next generation of changemakers that are looking for their own opportunities to drive our communities forward.
We’re partnering with B!G ART again in 2024 to present OPEN on Fountain Square , a unique, interactive, multi-sensory experience. Festivalgoers will encounter another massive scale art installation featuring:
The Arch
At 25 feet tall, this grand spectacle is visible in daylight and provides extensive content possibilities to be experienced from up close or at a distance.
The Doors
Open these hands-on, interactive elements that fill the plaza with flexible, configurable surprises.
The Gates
Connecting the main installation components, these lighted and programmable pathways give patrons a sense of guided exploration through the plaza.
