“Selfie Museum” Trend Arrives in Scranton

What exactly is a selfie museum? Part art gallery, photo studio, and interactive experience, the phenomenon of the “selfie museum” has popped up in most major US cities and traveled around the world. Born out of the “do it for the gram” era of highly visual social media feeds, these museums satisfy the quest for a like-worthy pic. Visitors are immersed in a variety of creative visual spaces and encouraged to play, pose, and capture the moment to share as they please.

Not just a selfie museum, Say Cheese, the photo museum, utilizes a hands-free technology that gives users the ability to move freely while snapping pics sans photographer. This innovation opens up a world of new possibilities, and new angles, for budding photographers, filmmakers, content creators and possible STEM program integrations. It’s truly a space for creative freedom, and a good deal of fun!

Say Cheese is coming to The Marketplace at Steamtown with a soft opening set for Halloween day. Chanel Fields, the innovator behind this venture, promises an interactive and immersive pop-culture experience that appeals to all ages.
