The new exhibit “Da Vinci Experience” has only ever been showcased once in Europe, and will provide a unique one of a kind opportunity for the public to walk through the life and studio of Leonardo da Vinci.
The event is scheduled to open on June 28th, and will take place at Tsawwassen Mills Mall in Delta.
About the Exhibit
Guests can expect much more than a visual walk-through of the artist’s paintings. There will be multiple rooms featuring different aspects of the artist’s life.
Starting with an opportunity to take photos and analyze some of Da Vinci’s most famous works, like the Mona Lisa, the Last Supper and the Vitruvian Man. Followed by actual replicas of some of his inventions and machines.
There will also be two immersive experiences. This includes a 360 degree projection of over 250 HD images of his original works, and a virtual reality experience where visitors can actually interact with his works.
Designed to be COVID safe, tickets will be for specific time slots and the event in general will be confirming to PHO recommendations.
Regular price tickets are $29.99 + tax for Mon-Thurs time slots, and $25.99 + tax for Fri-Sun. Special rates are available for children, seniors, and families. The Da Vinci VR experience is available as an add-on, and can be purchased on-site purchases for an additional $3.
