On Thursday November 21st at 6:00 p.m., guests are invited to enjoy dinner, drinks, music, and an auction to commemorate this special occasion. Guests also will have the chance to experience a mixed reality demonstration exhibit directed by Newport native Riley Hayes. Mixed reality is a blend of physical and virtual worlds that includes both real and computer-generated objects. The two worlds are "mixed" together to create a realistic environment. The demonstration is a preview of a future exhibit of the museum that will take viewers back in time to Old Newport in the early 20th Century, showing all of Balboa Island’s original landmarks.
