Haley’s Comet

Van Gogh: Immersive Experience

You will see Van Gogh’s famous paintings displayed across the walls via projector. Each piece of art moves and shifts along with sounds to make you feel like you’re in your painting.

Sometimes the new light and sound experiences can be overwhelming. Emporium offers an old-school arcade filled with games like pinball and skeeball. It’s also an excellent spot to grab a beer as you challenge a friend to a game of pool.

Other available exhibits include an experience controlled by your thoughts and indoor golf and virtual reality experiences.
