Description
Drawing on the illustrious history of the great panorama paintings of the 18th and 19th centuries, The Velaslavasay Panorama is an exhibition hall, theatre and garden dedicated to the production and presentation of unusual visual experiences, including those of the 360-degree variety. The Velaslavasay Panorama panoramic exhibition encircles the spectator within a fully enveloping atmosphere; the vast painting, of a continuous surrounding landscape, accompanied by sound stimulation and three-dimensional elements, affords the viewer an opportunity to experience a complete sensory phenomenon.
Located in the West Adams Historic District, The Velaslavasay Panorama presents to the community an art form that has been all but lost due to the technological advancements of our time and the differing ways in which the public consumes mass entertainment.
As well as serving as a showcase for panoramic works and living garden wonders,The Velaslavasay Panorama also hosts events. The Panorama's past events have included film screenings and presentations that vary from Automata's toy theatre productions and silent film programs to crafting meetings and other experimentations; the theatre and grounds are also available for event rental and filming.
