🌸 SPECIAL LINKEDIN BUSINESS PARTNERS OFFER! 🎨 Virginia Arts Festival is excited to present Beyond Monet: The Immersive Experience at the Virginia Beach Convention Center beginning July 5th! To celebrate, we'd like to offer you 20% off tickets with code VAF20. Tickets and more info: https://lnkd.in/eceFpwDD Beyond Monet: The Immersive Experience gives guests a glimpse into the emotions and perspectives of the leading figure of Impressionism: Claude Monet. Taking inspiration from Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris, the designated home of Monet’s masterpieces, guests can freely roam the Infinity Room to absorb the artist’s bright and colorful paintings. Monet’s stunning imagery encompasses every surface of the room, transporting guests inside the paintings themselves. It is a haven for awakening the senses as the ebb and flow of the artwork is accompanied by the rhythm of an original score.
