Dark&Light to surprise the whole city
Sun Gallery celebrated its current birthday in the concept of Dark&Light, where the main activation of the holiday was a laser show – a game of light and darkness, in which the city map "flashed" harmoniously, as well as images of miners, families with children dynamically changed, positive messages and sunrise were added as the main attribute of the identity of the Sun Gallery shopping mall. Residents of Kryvyi Rih highly appreciated such patriotic and motivating gift to the city. Moreover, everything happened on the street and with respect to social distance, in order to guarantee the participants of the Dark&Light contemplation a high-quality performance and safety. 
Bet on positive emotions
Throughout the event, various artistic and entertainment locations and styles were attracted to the Sun Gallery shopping mall: drummers, mimes, animated stories, an art installation in the form of a mural, children's fun events with gifts and prize draws. Each visitor to the mall had the opportunity to choose or spontaneously join the activities to the mood or at will, which were distanced throughout the entire space of the Sun Gallery shopping mall. Traffic on this day increased by up to 20% compared to the previous weekend in September 2020. 
"Humanity is our asset", "9 lives", "Dostupno.UA»
In April 2020, the Sun Gallery purchased for Kryvyi Rih infectious diseases hospital No. 1 and transferred humanitarian aid – equipment necessary to improve the quality of medical care and comfort for people with disabilities. The topic of inclusion for Kryvyi Rih, as well as for other cities in Ukraine, is an important issue. Therefore, the mall provides a number of activities to make it convenient and comfortable for people with disabilities to move around, participate in events and make purchases. As a result, the Sun Gallery shopping mall received a special award from the all-Ukrainian non-governmental organization "Dostupno.UA". 
Another initiative is the photo exhibition "9 lives", organized in the Sun Gallery shopping mall together with a public organization "Movement without borders". It was a unique idea to draw attention to people with disabilities who are known in the city, good, successful, strong, with their life mission and who told about themselves. 
"Humanity is our asset "is a corporate message of social and charitable projects implemented by the Sun Gallery shopping mall. 
Successful woman in the Sun Gallery shopping mall
One of the important trends of our time is a change in approaches to shopping, when purchases bring pleasure and consumer experience, and sellers not only provide service support, but also represent the values of the fashion brand, are its advocates and influencers. With this in mind, the Sun Gallery shopping mall hosted a unique author's communication project about shopping, in which the main speakers were shop assistants. They expressed their own vision of what a modern successful woman should be like. As a result, sellers became influential opinion leaders among the buyers 'community, and international and Ukrainian brands were effectively intertwined in a personal communication project for the buyers' community in Kryvyi Rih.
