- An awesome experience and the staff was very friendly. I would encourage anyone to take the journey. This art exhibit is like no other 👍🏾
- Such an awesome experience, learned so much!
- I loved all the photo ops and the mural was super cute. Some of the projections in the Immersion room was a bit creepy, but thanks to the signs I was prepared for that. I learned more about Diego and Frida that what was taught to me in elementary school.
- This is my third immersive experience type event , it still Amazes!! Great exhibit. Employees were super welcoming and helpful. The only issue was the location, the stated address was not helpful. Per GPS I ended up in an industrial area I used the directions in the email they were helpful
- The staff was courteous and helpful! Really enjoyed all aspects of the exhibit
- Awesome!!
- I was very impressed with the visuals, however I would have liked for the exhibition to be bilingual. Cater to your audience. These are Mexican geniuses that spoke Spanish!!!!
- The combination of rooms, videos and VR brought to life the story of Frieda and Diego in a very creative manner
- very cool.
- I enjoyed the exhibit immensley. There was extensive detail provided in a concise and warm manner. It is a beautiful tribute to the legacy of Frida and Diego.
- It was a wonderful exhibit. The only reason I didn't give 5 stars is I thought it should be a little darker in the big room with projected 4 wall so the walls would be more vibrant. Also there should have been more swivel stools so everyone could experience the 360 degrees better.
- Wonderful exhibit! Truly a sensory experience. Beautiful done and felt like you were in a bit of a time warp!
- It was absolutely amazing! It’s definitely a must see exhibit if you haven’t seen it.
- So nice, spacious, airy and the visuals are great.
- Fabulous experience rich with information, visually stimulating art, video, music, and virtually reality. I love Frida Kahlo and Diego Rivera and this event showcased their talent!
