An exciting new immersive art exhibit is now open at a new venue in Spokane. The Exhibition Hub Art Center Spokane Art Center, located at 808 N. Ruby is one of several new art centers opened by the company across the country. And their first show Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience opened to the public just yesterday.
Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience is a 360-degree digital art exhibition that invites you to step into the universe of the Dutch genius, Vincent Van Gogh. The captivating experience, a previous winner of USA Today's 10 Best Readers Choice award is brought by the organizers of a collection of widely successful exhibitions presented in cities across Europe, Asia and the Americas.
Featured is a one-of-a-kind VR experience: travel through 8 works and their source of inspiration in "A Day in the life of the artist in Arles, France" (small additional fee). Digitial displays, sound effects, projection mapping and much more!
Inland Northwest Business Watch was able to check out the media preview of the Van Gogh experience and we're very impressed. The event and new venue will likely prove to be an asset to the Spokane community as the Exhibition Hub will likely also be home to future art events by the same company in the future. "When we open an art center we tend to stick around" said John Zaller, Executive producer for Exhibition Hub.
"Spokane is a growing market, very vibrant, in terms of its support of the arts" said Zaller when speaking on why to choose Spokane for the opening of the show and venue. "So, we knew there would be a good market for an art exhibition and immersive art experience"
Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience will also be a boon for the Spokane economy. Zaller noted " We get people from two, three, four hours away who are coming to Downtown Spokane. They're going to come to Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience as their destination. But, they're going to stay in a hotel. They're going to go to the restaurants, they're going to go to the bars, they're going go to the symphony or the Art Museum, as well. They're going to make it an overnight event. They're going to make a weekend of it"
Exhibition Hub Art Center Spokane is open Mon & Thurs. 10-7, Friday 10-8, Sat. 9-8 and Sun. 9-6. Ticket prices are shown in the image below, with the group price being shown as per person. The facility also does offer ample free parking.
