FunHundred! Immersive Entertainment Experience

FunHundred!, an immersive art and entertainment experience, was created by hundreds of volunteers from our community to celebrate the Chamber's Centennial Anniversary and 100 years of economic progress in Winter Park. From the uniquely designed "100" signs at the entrance to the wildly creative garden zones featuring repurposed materials reimagined into sculptures and scenes that tell a visual story of Winter Park's roots and ingenuity, FunHundred! inspired, educated and entertained more than 50,000 visitors.
