The International Academy of Visual Arts recently awarded the National Aquarium’s new jellies website, www.aqua.org/jellies, two awards. The website was launched in conjunction with Jellies Invasion: Oceans Out of Balance, one of the Aquarium’s newest exhibits. R2integrated (R2i), a leading Internet marketing technology company, worked closely with the National Aquarium’s interactive department to help develop and launch the new website.

The website earned W3 Silver Awards in the Best Activism Website and the Best Visual Appeal categories. Site visitors can learn about the new exhibit by getting a behind-the-scenes tour, sharing photos, and watching videos!

R2integrated worked closely with our interactive department to conceptualize and launch the online jellies experience which includes the interactive kiosks outside of the exhibit,” said Jonathan Sullivan, manager of interactive media, National Aquarium. “Since the site’s launch in May, just in time for Memorial Day weekend, it has been viewed more than 210,000 times with nearly 70 percent of this traffic being unique. Visitors from more than 80 places around the globe have viewed the site. The Jellies microsite and kiosks play a daily role in creating a transforming experience, and to inspire our visitors to enjoy, respect, and protect the aquatic world.”

The W3 Awards are sanctioned and judged by the International Academy of Visual Arts and honor creative excellence on the Web, and recognizes the creative and marketing professionals behind award winning Web sites, Web video and online marketing programs.
