Visitors are encouraged to interact with the different sections of the exhibit, from a virtual tour of mosques around the world to a pretend marketplace, to a screen that teaches you how to say “my name is” in different languages. “They’re immersive, they’re hands on, they’re interactive, they’re multi-sensory. Basically, we’re wanting the child’s natural curiosity to be completely catered to,” said Lizzy Martin, Director of Exhibit Development and Museum Planning . “We want them to touch, to smell, to feel, and almost to pretend that they are of the culture themselves.”
