The Story

One campus. Six offerings. A clear case for what came next.

Kenan Center is Lockport’s home for arts, education, and recreation. Frame Content House built six highlight films around each corner of campus—and two social cuts for every highlight, formatted specifically for social—so audiences could feel the mission in every channel, then carried that story into a campaign film about the need for the new Civic Arena.

The work didn’t sit on a hard drive. It moved across social media, Kenan’s website, fundraising events, email marketing, the Transit Drive-In, and more—meeting neighbors and donors where they already gather.

From the client
Josh is, at his core, a storyteller. His work was instrumental in our fundraising efforts for the new $16.5 million Kenan Civic Arena, helping us communicate not just what we were building, but why it mattered to our community, a distinction Josh understands instinctively. Working with him feels less like managing a vendor and more like having an incredibly talented and trusted member of your own team.

From the series

Two films from the six-part offering series

Each highlight spotlighted a Kenan offering on its own terms, with matching social cuts ready for the feed—so the arena ask arrived with proof of what the campus already gives the community.
