BEWARE! THE DR IS IN! fantastic experience learning the ins and outs of holography. Truly stunning pieces on display!Reservation recommendedYes
Highly recommended! The owner will tell you a lot about holographs and show you some remarkable works he did with Bill Clinton and Andy Warhol for example. Very good hidden secret of NYC!
Definitely spring for the tour. Jason knows his stuff upside and down and loves telling you all about it. You will get to see things that aren't in the main display, including the laser downstairs used to make the holograms. He's also had a lot of interesting encounters with some famous folk over the years bonus: people who know something about recording music should ask him about what local joint he spent some time at.... Covid put a dent in their business and now is the time to get them caught up. When I was there, they happened to be having a fundraiser to keep the doors open. Don't let this venerable, one-of-a-kind enterprise slip away! Every nerd and their kid should make it a point to stop by if they are in NYC and do their part to keep it going. Thank you, Dr. Laser!
Today is Friday ! September 16, 4:55 pm and it’s closed! My grandchildren still seat down at main entry stairs, disappointing!
This place is AWESOME! I would definitely recommend getting the tour. It's well worth the price! Dr. Laser is super funny and puts on quite a show when presenting the science behind holograms. He could be compared to Bill Nye the Science Guy for adults, but I'm sure he could appeal to kids as well. The art in the museum is spectacular, but the lasers shown on the tour are really really cool. You'll learn and see a lot.
I encourage you to take a class from Dr. Laser--you'll love it! I took a wonderful class here, made my first hologram, learned a ton about holography, and had a lot of fun. Dr. Laser is a great teacher--he helps you dive into hands-on learning very quickly and explains the science and methodology of holography clearly and compellingly--and he is a talented and unique artist. In fact, I betcha the good doctor is the ONLY artist to have created holograms of Andy Warhol, Ed Koch, and Isaac Asimov. Add in the bonus of Dr. Laser's great storytelling abilities and sense of humor, and you have an unforgettable experience. Book a class now! :-
Make sure to take the guided tour. Dr. Laser makes it fun for one and all! Even my pre-teen and teenagers were impressed! Great family fun!
Watch out, Bill Nye the science guy... Dr. Laser's in the house! If you're looking to do something unique while in NYC, put Holographic Studios at the top of your list. It takes less than a minute to see how obviously passionate and knowledgeable Jason is regarding his field. He takes you on a fun-filled journey his second career should be comedy into his holographic lair where you'll discover everything you could never even imagine about this fascinating science. The tour lasts approximately an hour so if you want to be thoroughly entertained while learning something new from a gracious host, make sure to add 240 E 26th Street to your itinerary!
Truly a little jewel of a place. Check out or buy amazing holograms or get a tour of the studio. Dr. Laser is awesome and will answer all your questions and show you tons of fun stuff. He takes commissions too!
