It is worth noting this building has become an immersive art experience building. It was originally…read moreVan Gogh, but is now Monet. They control the number of people for each time slot well, and you don't feel crowded if you want to linger and read information. They have comfortable seating areas in the 360 exhibit area, and the entire "show" was probably 45 minutes before the art starts to repeat. The best part about the immersive art is that you could choose to sit through it more than once, if you wish to. There's no time limit once you are inside. I think they do a great job trying to cluster information together to help you understand the training and path, and life, journey of the artist throughout each phase of their life. it's easy to just walk up and stare at a painting. I love that they took a certain view of the parliament building and showed how the artist painted it five times throughout his lifetime and how his style and colors changed with each phase of his life. I really think they tried hard to blend and history together, which is unique. It gave me a deeper appreciation. I didn't pay attention to see if there was an elevator, but we did take a lot of stairs to get from the restrooms on the bottom floor to part of the exhibits on the first floor, and the upper floor would be where the movie viewing gallery would be where you are immersed in a 360 circle with the art. I love that they used an existing downtown building and that you can park and walk to so many restaurants and museums in the downtown Cincinnati area. We chose the Fountain Square parking garage, went to eat at Nada and walked to the Monet exhibit. We noticed on the walk that we could've also went to the contemporary art museum, which is right downtown but we were out of time. It could be a good full day of lunch and art. The building is a little chilly, I would recommend having a coat. I think it's such an older large building. It's probably very expensive to heat. This was a great girls trip day event, and everyone enjoyed it from the 20-year-olds to my mother who is in her 60s.

The immersive experience was cool and well, as advertised, it was definitely immersive. I realize the Van Gogh experience has moved on, but the Monet is running currently and I'm certain it's as good. I'll say it was worth the cost of admission, so there you have it. Whoever puts together these exhibits knows what they're doing.

While in town for a weekend getaway we came across this mural on the side of a restaurant when exploring the city. Very large and you could see it from a few blocks away. The black background rally makes the mural pop as well. Overall a very cool and interesting mural that gives you some 1800 beginning days of baseball vibes.

Upon arrival to actually getting ready to pick out a piece and actual going into the shop to assist and learn what all goes into the process. Mike is exceptional as an teacher and instructor as you will find. He has a great resume and knows what he is doing. This is a smaller shop, however the output of designs is far from small. It is large on quality and creativity. Mike worked with each of us (a group of 4, 2 grandkids and 2 adults). Not only did we get first hand instructions and guidance, we were able to see other glassblowers in action. We ended up with 3 pumpkins and 1 snowman. Mike also gave provided us with some of the top universities that offer glassblowing and how to get started. It is a fairly tedious journey in learning all the in's and outs of glass blowing and design and what works and what doesn't. We were truly impressed and may look at Fire Studio and Gallery for some xmas presents. This might be a bit expensive art, however it is usually one of a kind and in personal gifts, that means a lot.
