Landmark Creations Illuminates the Minnesota Zoo with Custom Inflatables

In 2021, KARE11 featured Landmark Creations for their pivotal role in the Minnesota Zoo’s Nature Illuminated exhibit. This enchanting event showcased 32 larger-than-life inflatables, including glowing penguins, bears, and other wildlife sculptures that captivated visitors during the holiday season.

Designed and fabricated by the Landmark Creations team in Burnsville, these inflatables brought the zoo to life after dark, combining artistry with technical expertise. President Stephanie Meacham shared insights on the creative process, revealing that the team began planning in the summer and completed the dazzling collection within two months. Landmark Creations, with a history dating back to 1986, continues to deliver imaginative and impactful inflatables for events, including this stunning collaboration with the Minnesota Zoo.
