A flyer for The Huntington Gallery

The Huntington Gallery is an immersive exhibition space that helps you discover what it means to be a Huntington customer. From interactive budgeting tools to a gallery of Huntington’s investments, you can see it all. Not only will you discover Huntington, but you will also be able to connect with your Huntington community at the gallery.

In the present day, art is becoming an incredible tool for education and experience as “it transcends language, cultures and politics in a most succinct way” (Lukova, 2018). The creative display of finances and banking could potentially bring about a new age of financial well-being and literacy as customers can experience finances in ways that directly impact them.

Not only does art transcend the boundaries of traditional banking language, but it also helps spread information and learning. Many of the literature reviews in the “Art” section of my newspaper have a common theme of art being something that allows you to change the way resources, perceptions, and opportunities are embedded in a community. Education and the simple effort of trying to reach your community of customers in ways that help break systematic barriers or obstacles shows that you care about your base and that you are willing to try out new ideas to help support your community and have your community support you. Even if this conjecture is impractical due to the problems with location, engagement of customers, and creation and maintenance of the space, it is still important in exploring how art can be a communicative tool.
