Downtown Fodor's Choice

This is a 20,000-square-foot space you must see to believe, as descriptions, or even images, don't really do it justice. It is a permanent and uniquely curated (to say the least) gallery of 14 distinctive, immersive, and interactive installations by 40 local, national, and international artists seeking to create high-impact works in sustainable and creative ways. A sample of exhibits includes Quantum Trampoline, GAZE, VJ Yourself, Diodic Daydream (ball pit), Laser Graffiti, and many more. The space also features an award-winning bar program, public-facing lounge, and a uniquely-curated gift shop, as well as a large patio across from scenic Travis Park. Gallery tickets must be purchased online in advance. The entire experience is self-guided and self-paced, with guests spending an average of 90 minutes in the gallery portion.
