The Wonder Sound’ At New Children’s Museum

Artist Wes Sam-Bruce has built a magical wonderland over at the New Childrern’s Museum.

“The Wonder Sound” is an installation that’s part tree house, part imaginary village that has its own language and its own kid-centric rules.

If you want to climb, you can climb. If you want to hide in a quiet space, you’ll find that, too. The immersive installation is like stepping into a new culture where both kids and adults are encouraged to explore new histories, new languages and even push personal boundaries. Will you climb up the rope maze? Or decipher symbols to create a new language?

“It’s supposed to be transportive,” Sam-Bruce said. “So you are now in this place that feels like it could be a real culture from somewhere, it feels as if you’re in this blend between a factual and a fictional place.”

“The Wonder Sound” exhibit is included in the price of admission. Parking is $10. For additional details call (619) 233-8792.
