PHILADELPHIA, June 26, 2019 /PRNewswire/ -- EMC Events will be creating a Philadelphia-focused, three-dimensional visual experience for the 2019 Social Media Day.

With a long-standing history of creating unforgettable, award-winning experiences for their clients, EMC Events will be tapping into their own expertise to create a one-of-a-kind shareable moment at Social Media Day in Philadelphia.

Mockup of the three-dimensional chalk art installation as part of the EMC Events experiential marketing activation for 2019 Social Media Day in Philadelphia on June 27.

The activation will highlight the link between experiential and social media marketing. The concept is one of the themes at Social Media Day and aligns with an event session, called Engagement Marketing Workshop. The session will feature EMC Events' Director of Strategic Partnerships, Jerry Buckley, and CEO of Slice Communications, Cass Bailey.

A regionally-based chalk artist will create a three-dimensional depiction of the Philadelphia cityscape and historic landmarks. Viewers will have an opportunity to engage with the artist and installation by standing on the sidewalk and peering down into a "cutaway" that reveals iconic local attractions, including City Hall's William Penn statue, LOVE Park, Philadelphia Museum of Art, and more. Event attendees and passersby will be encouraged to take pictures with the installation and share them on social media, using the activation hashtag #PhillyLovesBilly and the event hashtag #SMDayPHL.

Social Media Day, facilitated by Slice Communications, a Philadelphia-based communications agency, will be held at the Arch Street Meeting House. The event features speakers from top-tier brands and agencies and gathers more than 500 marketers, strategists and social media professionals from brands and agencies across the region. EMC Events is a sponsor of the 2019 Social Media Day.
