Arcadia Earth

If interactive museums are the way of the future, count Arcadia Earth on the cutting edge. Be aware, you'll need a capable and fully charged phone for this experience. They connect you at the beginning and you use your phone as a guide. You look through your screen and they add elements to your viewing experience as if they were really there. It's quite neat. The museum on the whole is pretty informative and the general thesis is we need to treat earth much better if we want to carry on. Can't argue there.

Alright. Good experience and nice artwork. Great colors, interactive, and overall nice theme and message. A pleasant place to go and experience once. Only 3 stars for a few reason. Not the best experimental/interactive experience in New York that I've been to. Very expensive, being $39 base fee for adult during prime time, not including processing fee AND tax. The high cost wasn't really worth the whole experience. The augmented reality was a nice touch but seemed cheap and not the most well made. Occasionally, the QR scans or AR wouldn't function properly and many of the QRs were requests for donations. Overall, a decent and fun experience but not worth the price. Would rate higher if it were cheaper.

I visited this place as an interesting museum. It's more of an interactive art exhibit that highlights rudimentary environmental issues primarily in the ocean as a PA system regularly provides helpful advice. You go through the exhibit with a mobile app that gives simple AR experiences at select locations. Overall it's kinda expensive to visit and you don't get a lot out of it. But it's good for taking pictures of yourself.

Went for the first time and it was quite an experience. Really liked the artwork and the messages behind it. I could see there was a lot of thought put into each piece and I think the artists as a collective did a really good job. The staff were professional and friendly too. I only had a few issues. One, the price of the tickets is a little steep to me considering what the experience is overall. The VR headset was okay, but a bit heavy and I think it could be updated to a better model. Also, it seems like everyone has had different experiences with the app they tell you to download to interact with the art, but for me it really wasn't worth it. It was very slow and only worked on my phone for maybe 10 minutes, then just completely stopped working. Other than that, I liked the experience overall.

Definitely an interesting walk through experience! The staff were great and helpful. I think this experience has a bold message, but I took a star away because the app that goes with the experience is pretty awful lol Sometimes the app works, but it’s pretty slow. It’s a fun afternoon activity though!

This was an interesting place to visit. The exhibits on display covered many environmental concerns including sustainability, global warming and species loss. The AR effects were pretty cool. I also enjoyed the VR movie which included closeups of many threatened animalsVisited onWeekendWait timeNo waitReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$31+

A friend and I went to Arcadia Earth Museum. It's an interactive museum about the environment/climate change being effected by plastic waste, deforestation and trash. The artists use plastic trash, food waste and other materials to create what some of the impact looks like. It's beautiful, haunting and very sad as well. We really need to make a serious change.

This is the best museum I have ever visited! It’s fully interactive. 10 out of 10! super interesting! You can calculate your ecological footprint as you move along the exposition As a scholar in ESG and Environmental Sustainability, I can confirm the content is up to date and the values delivered through the exhibits closely correlate with the current trends!

Great AR experience, I had a work meeting; this was a great space. This exhibition was cleverly done. Having fun while learning how humans affect our Earth and ways we can help. Visited onWeekdayWait time30–60 minReservation recommendedYesPrice for adult entry$31+

I liked it, didn't initially realize it was a climate pollution/damage focused exhibit which while important, I wasn't mentally prepared for so it was a bit of a bummer at first. They did present the information in really cool ways though and the interactive element was pretty neat. Ended up being a unique experience to learn about climate impacts.
