The Langley Centennial Museum is now providing 360 Virtual Exhibitions Experiences

FORT LANGLEY, BC - Langley Centennial Museum recognizes the need keep its community connected to Arts, Culture and Heritage during the COVID-19 impact period.

The Museum Team has been busy planning and organizing a series of activities for online presentation, during the current closure of their facility.

They are pleased to announce that the first undertaking was to convert both their temporary exhibition "The Sporting Life: A History of Athletic Fashions with Ivan Sayers" and the permanent history gallery into 360 Virtual Exhibition experiences.  "This 3D walk-through is a good alternative to a regular visit given the current circumstances" said Curator Kobi Christian.

A catalogue is being prepared by staff for the Sayer's exhibition that will provide greater text details along with 20 high resolution images of the display.  Staff are grateful that Ivan Sayers has agreed to allow us to make a conversion of his curated exhibition into a virtual experience.

Arts, Culture and Community Initiatives Director Peter Tulumello stated: "While I don't want to provide too many details as to what the Museum team is planning for future weeks, I can tell you how proud I am of their creativity and their dedication to delivering quality and relevant experiences. Staff are looking to document and integrate community experiences during these difficult times into interactive programming activities that hope to create social connective opportunities for the community"
