When visitors venture upstairs, they’ll notice the new Anywhere Room, a world of pure imagination.

“It’s incredible,” explained Program Director Sara O’Reilly. “It’s state-of-the-art. This is the first room and this technology of its kind in the Pacific Northwest for education. So this is a big deal that we have this here.”

Using advanced projection technology, visuals surround visitors. No headsets or special equipment required. From space to the Serengeti to a roller coaster in Santa Monica, people can go anywhere.

Over the past few years, the upstairs deck has been converted into the new space.

“We are just so excited to see, finally, the culmination of all of that hard work over the last seven years come to fruition and have Helena experience Anywhere,” O’Reilly noted.
