From 3D to Digital: Art in Island Is Now The Media Square
It opens on December 15.
(SPOT.ph) Art in Island, an indoor attraction in Cubao, Quezon City, is known for its massive murals and colorful backgrounds that let visitors be part of the art. Like most places, it temporarily shut its doors at the height of the pandemic. It reopened in October 2021 with a no-kids-allowed rule, but had to close again in August 2022 to make way for "new content that you've never experienced before." Well, the big reveal is finally here as Art in Island announced on Monday night that they're reopening on December 15 with a new name, The Media Square.

Touted as the largest mixed media museum in the Philippines, The Media Square is set to bring art, media, and technology together through digital display, larger-than-life projection, and transcendental audio. The immersive experience was made in collaboration with renowned artists and digital experts from South Korea.
