OVER THE RAINBOW  

Over the Rainbow is a multi-sensory VR Experience that can help you to momentarily escape the demands of your day-to-day life and to experience the feeling of happiness.

 

It immerses you in a virtual world filled with positive imagery, soothing music and sounds, and opportunities for playful interaction.

 

Created by AV Ventura, Maya Dance Theatre and supported by the National Arts Council of Singapore, participants will have a chance to immerse themselves in the VR experience and then ask questions to the creators who will be joining us remotely.
