You will not have to travel far to take in a popular touring art experience that has sold three million tickets worldwide.
“Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience” announced this week that Green Bay will be one of its future stops. Details are limited at this point, but when it does it come it will feature 300 artworks across 30,000 square feet as it uses digital effects to make you a part of the painting itself. The closest it has been to Door County was Milwaukee, where 196,000 visited the Wisconsin Center to check out the experience during its seven-month run. Miller Art Museum Executive Director Elizabeth Meissner-Gigstead says while it does not replace the feeling you get when you can see the brushstrokes of painting in person, she can see how it can draw different types of people to art.

The Miller Art Museum also has its own ways you can get immersed and inspired by art. In addition to the works they have on display at the Sturgeon Bay Library, the Miller Art Museum launched its satellite education space known as M3 last month. M3 will allow the museum to offer hands-on programming with workshops being held throughout the year.
