If you were hoping to get into art this year, WNDR Museum is bringing an immersive experience to downtown San Diego. The 15,000-sqft space makes its public debut tomorrow and features pieces from international artists, collectives, technologists, designers, and makers.

Guests will be able to engage with 20+ exhibits, all fusing art with technology to change your concept of a trip to the museum. Expect to dive into a VR installation created by OseanWorld, or visit the brand new “Inside Out” display by Leigh Satchwitz and flora&faunavisions where you step into a translucent garden house and weather a digitized storm.

The experience is open daily, but hours differ. Prices start at $32 for adults and $22 for children. It may be worth a revisit, because the museum will curate new installations throughout the year.

📍 422 Market St.
