Projects

DarKoaster

We were honored to contribute to the theming of Busch Gardens’s new roller coaster, DarKoaster! We were proud to craft several theming elements, including the mixed media statue at the entrance of the ride made of foam, steel, and cement. Always eager to take on new challenges, we also created stained glass panels made of acrylic that contribute to the ride’s gothic aesthetic!

Giant Pumpkin

Firefly Scenic Studios was excited to design a giant, foam jack-o-lantern for the Smithsonian National Zoo! We designed the jack-o-lantern to have a steel frame to make installation and strike more efficient and easy.

Beanstalk and Photo op Wall

Our Beanstalk and accompanying photo op wall were featured in a place of honor at the entrance of Busch Gardens for their 2023 Howl-O-Scream 2023. The sculpture was constructed by creating a metal frame and surrounding it with foam.

Nebulous

After bringing Lolly the Bear to life, Pine Camp commissioned another sculpture to serve as an entryway for their upcoming sculpture garden and labyrinth! Nebulous is crafted from welded steel and stands 10 feet tall.

Angel Pole Mount Refurb

In addition to bringing brand new creations to life, we also can breathe new life into old creations! Busch Gardens requested our expertise to refurbish over 30 tinsel angel pole mounts. These angels were over 13 years old, and we were happy to give them a refreshed appearance so they can continue to bring peace and joy to Christmas Town.

Kite Sky

Always eager to build with new materials, we were excited to create an airborne art installation for Busch Gardens’s Summer Nights experience. Kite Sky was installed overnight and is made of over 1,000 kites in a vibrant display!

Snow White

For Busch Gardens Howl-O-Scream 2022, Firefly designed and built this frightful exhibit of a supposed Snow White, never rescued and left to decay.

Choose Your Fate

Positioned at the very entrance of the park, this gameshow gone wrong introduced Busch Garden's guests to the seasonal display that is Howl-O-Scream.

Witch in the Woods

We built many additions for Witch in the Woods, a haunted house at Busch Garden's Williamsburg, including this floating monk sculpture and dilapidated shack.

Witch Golem

We designed, built, and installed the witch golem for the main entrance at Howl-O-Scream at Busch Gardens Williamsburg.

Window Frames & Roof Lines

We fitted, constructed, and installed pre-assembled roof lines and window frames with Christmas lights at Busch Gardens Williamsburg. This allowed for a quicker and more efficient installation and strike of lights and had the added benefit of preserving the building infrastructure.

Window Frames & Roof Lines

Lolly the Bear

Lolly is a life-size bear, hungry for all your bottles and cans. Created as a recycling receptacle, she sits at the trailhead at Pine Camp Cultural Arts Center encouraging all who visit to please recycle.

Water Well

We built two of these water wells for Busch Gardens Williamsburg for their Howl-O-Scream event. Designed in modular pieces which bolt together for easy installation and storage, they are also painted to withstand the elements.

The Cauldron

This Cauldron is a fabrication of many talents and uses. Centered in Ireland for Busch Gardens' Saint Patrick's Day celebration it made a festive and fun center piece. But come October, it makes a creepy and grueling contribution to any haunted house.

Meadow Fence

We created this rustic fence to surround a wildflower meadow at Pine Camp Cultural Arts Center. Once the meadow is more established this archway will serve as an entrance to a path and the bench beside it will give visitors a spot to sit and gaze.
