The Venice International Film Festival's official creative virtual reality competition is offering its programming online and in select venues around the world, and the Portland Art Museum just so happens to be one of the satellite locations partnering with the Venice Biennale! That means that you, a Portland dweller, will be one of the first to see projects from well-known and independent artists from 24 countries. You'll purchase tickets in one-hour increments and select from 39 different virtual-reality experiences, and then you'll select a headset. From there, you'll have 50 minutes to watch projects and participate in them.

"The Ballroom will safely accommodate 14 participants per hour within social distancing rules, and all gear will be thoroughly sanitized with the most cutting edge safety precautions available between each visitor experience using the latest technology, Clean Box."
