Created in partnership with Asheville-based immersive media creators, Impractical Instruments, and the distributed team of imagineers at Brain Collision, with 20 years of insight from creating some of the nation’s most engaging experiences at Meow Wolf and Epic Games, comes a venue-wide art installation.
Throughout the festival weekend, attendees will have a chance to explore The Community Garden, art that reimagines community services as elements of a living garden.
