There's never been a better time to find new wonder at the Near West Side's WNDR Museum. This November, visitors can experience Interoptics, a stunning new exhibit that transforms the space with infinite fields of shimmering light and sound that respond to every movement. Guests will find themselves engulfed in an expansive, other-worldly environment that activates the senses, creating the illusion of a limitless space.

The innovative installation by WNDR Studios features groups of fiber-optic light strands suspended from the ceiling, casting a luminous glow throughout the space. This transcendent environment surrounds visitors with interactive light as they move through the exhibit, inspiring playfulness and igniting a sense of adventure. Located in the West Loop area of Chicago's Near West Side at 1130 W. Monroe Street, WNDR Museum continues to be the ultimate Chicago destination for immersive art with over 15 awe-inspiring installations. The museum also features Camp WNDR, a nostalgic summer camp-themed experience where summer never ends.

Near West Side residents and visitors can easily access the museum via public transportation, with convenient access from the Blue line at Racine station and the Green/Pink lines at Morgan station. With the new Interoptics exhibit now open, the museum invites community members to experience this unique fusion of technology and art that has made WNDR Museum a cultural anchor in the neighborhood since 2018.
