The art exhibit (which opened last Saturday, March 21st, 2015) is taking place at the Washington Pavilion and showcases residents of Sioux Falls born in between the years 1946 and 1964. The gallery was inspired by the PBS program 'American Masters: The Boomer List' -- a list of boomers throughout the United States. The local exhibition (called 'The Boomer List: Sioux Falls') contains [portraits of notable citizens](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/sonic-editions) in the area who made a significant impact on the community. This generation represents increased population growth following World War II and has seen a remarkable amount of change take place. Author Tim O'Brien offers "We watched the Apollo moon landing when Neil Armstrong landed on the moon and so we have a shared experience about the progress, really, that's been made over the last 45 years." ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 33% | Activity: 30% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [World](https://www.trendhunter.com/world) > [Regional](https://www.trendhunter.com/regional) ## Key Themes ### Key Themes Behind This Trend - **Boomer-showcasing Exhibits:** Exhibitions and art shows that feature portraits of baby boomer natives. - **Generational Commemoration:** Creating exhibits inspired by generational milestones and shared experiences. - **Nostalgia Marketing:** Marketing campaigns and promotions that appeal to baby boomers sense of nostalgia. ### Where This Applies - **Art and Culture:** Opportunity to showcase different exhibits that capture the life and times of different generations. - **Tourism:** Developing attractions for baby boomers that cater to their interests will boost tourism. - **Marketing and Advertising:** Opportunity to market nostalgia-driven campaigns to the lucrative baby boomer demographic. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Boomer-Focused Voter Advertisements](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/groom-a-boomer.md) - [Baby Boomer Glampsites](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baby-boomer-glampsites.md) - [Boomer-Targeted Luxury Resorts](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/palm-lake-resort-yamba-cove.md) - [Immersive Balloon Experiences](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/balloon-story-popup.md) - [Purpose-Driven Boomer Vacations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/volunteer-vacations.md) - [Post-Pandemic Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/bonami.md) - [Highly-Immersive Artist Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dennis-hopper.md) - [Graffiti Culture Art Exhibits](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/1970s-graffiti-today.md) - [AAPI-Honoring Art Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/upon-further-reflection.md)
