Citizens Financial Group Inc. has unveiled The Living Portrait of NYC, an immersive experience with images, audio and data to celebrate New York City. This experience will run from Sept. 18-27 at 29W 23rd Street in New York City, according to a press release.

The event will consist of four rooms, with the first showcasing trends and quirks of the city and the second featuring 'audioscapes' of more than 5000 personal stories of New Yorkers. The third will highlight a multimedia portrait of the city and the fourth will allow visitors to create a portrait for themselves.

"The intention of this space is to capture a moment in time in New York, holding a mirror up to multiple facets of the city after two challenging years," Beth Johnson, chief experience officer at Citizens, said in the release. "Our goal is to celebrate and entertain by providing research and the true voices of New York and bringing together dancers, musicians, comedians, and artists — and our friends and neighbors — to recapture the intimacy of in-person interactions that we've all missed during the pandemic. This is our gesture of hope and love to New Yorkers."
