5 things parents should know about Detroit’s new Van Gogh and Monet experience

Beyond Van Gogh and Beyond Monet: The Immersive Experience is coming to Huntington Place Convention Center on Oct. 30 combining two popular art experiences into one.

Here are five key details parents should know before planning a visit.

1. Two exhibits in one

Families will experience both Beyond Van Gogh and Beyond Monet together in Detroit. The dual presentation features works from Claude Monet and Vincent Van Gogh displayed side by side.

2. What Detroit families will see

More than 700 artworks will be projected onto walls using innovative technology and original soundscapes. Families can expect to see Van Gogh’s “The Starry Night,” “Almond Blossoms” and “Sunflowers,” along with Monet’s “Water Lilies” and “Woman with a Parasol.”

3. Interactive experiences for kids

The visit begins with an Education Room introducing the lives and legacies of both artists. After the main immersive gallery, families can stop by the Creation Station, where kids (and adults) can explore their own creativity.

4. What people are saying

“Through cutting-edge technology, this immersive experience is redefining what art means to people,” says Paquin Entertainment Group’s President of Exhibitions and Theatrical, Justin Paquin. “It has elevated artwork to the next level, allowing audiences to develop deeper connections with notable masterpieces that were once unimaginable.”

5. Tickets and availability

Tickets for the Detroit run are available now at the Beyond Van Gogh & Beyond Monet Detroit page.
