Today, we pause to honor Juneteenth—Freedom Day—a significant milestone in American history. This is a time to celebrate African American freedom, strength, and the countless contributions Black Americans have made to shape our country.

Our offices are closed today to observe this important holiday. We're taking this time to reflect on the past, recognize the strength of Black communities, and renew our commitment to a fairer future.

Let's celebrate the voices, accomplishments, and contributions of Black Americans that inspire us all. Tag someone in the comments who motivates you to strive for progress.

Next up in Postcards from Our Centralized Creative Team is Tracy Hall, Senior Strategic Experience Designer, whose creativity is fueled by curiosity, empathy, and adaptability.

Tracy believes inspiration is everywhere—the world is your oyster. A local coffee shop, a passing billboard, even a casual conversation can spark a big idea. Staying open to those everyday moments keeps her work fresh and surprising.

She also designs with intention, always keeping the audience at the center. Whether it’s immersive décor, impactful teambuilding, or small, thoughtful touches, Tracy tailors every experience to reflect what matters most to the group.

And when it comes to planning, Tracy knows to expect the unexpected. In live events, surprises are inevitable. A backup plan—and the flexibility to pivot quickly—ensures that the guest experience stays seamless, no matter what happens behind the scenes.

This is creativity at PRA. Follow along as we continue to showcase the talent behind our most unforgettable moments.

Our next spotlight in Postcards from Our Centralized Creative Team is Danielle Rothenberg, Associate Director of Experience Design, who brings emotion, story, and a deep sense of place to every project she leads.

For Danielle, every detail tells a story. From lighting to layout, each element is intentional—designed to guide the guest journey and create environments that feel immersive and meaningful from start to finish.

She believes that the most powerful designs are the ones guests feel. Whether it’s joy, nostalgia, or a sense of wonder, those emotional connections are what people remember long after the event ends.

Danielle also draws inspiration from the local landscape—regional aesthetics, materials, and cultural motifs that add authenticity and richness to the experience. By grounding her designs in place, she ensures each moment feels both rooted and remarkable.

This is creativity at PRA. Follow along as we continue to spotlight the minds behind the experiences that leave a lasting impression.

Inspired by Washington, D.C.’s iconic cherry blossoms, we transformed this ballroom into a storybook setting for a 550-person welcome dinner hosted by a leading insurance group.

From glamorous garden entertainers and interactive photo ops to historical tributes, live music, and refined design details, guests were immersed in a series of thoughtfully curated moments.

Flawlessly executed from start to finish.

From a private wine master class with top Napa winemaker Julien Fayard and leading wine critic Antonio Galloni to a welcome dinner featuring Top Chef’s Stephanie Izzard and acclaimed winemaker Philippe Melka, this Napa incentive trip for a leading automotive brand delivered unforgettable experiences and thoughtful touches throughout.

Guests explored wine country by e-bike, dined at award-winning restaurants, and enjoyed curated tastings across Napa, Yountville, and Sonoma. Custom wine gifts—including etched library bottles from Melka and rare vintages from Fayard—added a personal and memorable finish. Every detail was crafted with signature style to create a trip that was truly one of a kind.
