Museum of the Moon will be displayed in the magnificent Painted Hall. Visitors to this magical
setting can experience the seven metre, to-scale Moon, created using NASA imagery, as it hangs in
the Baroque hall. The imagery features minute detail of the lunar surface, taking the viewer right
round to the dark side of the moon. The installation features a surround sound composition by
BAFTA-winning composer Dan Jones for a stunning and profound art-meets-nature experience.
There will be a programme of Lates, music, dining and activities alongside The Museum of the
