Recently, we’ve seen art popping up everywhere. From new murals all around the city, to new art installations, it’s safe to say Columbia is having a major art boom. And honestly, we love it.

Friday afternoon, Columbia’s newest art space, Immersion, held its grand opening – along with Main Course and the Players Club – and officially opened to the public. We headed over to check it out so we could give y’all all of the need-to-know deets in case you couldn’t make it this weekend.

What to know

The space consists of eight rooms, two bathrooms, a hallway and a lobby that have been transformed from floor to ceiling in different themes.
Tickets to visit Immersion cost $15.
Immersion is located on the second floor of Main Course at 1626 Main St.
The current artists featured at Immersion are Ija Charles, Lacey Hennessey, Christine Lutfy, Laurel Smith, Shelby LeBlanc, Taylor Smith and Austin "Slim" Gee.
Rooms and spaces will be redone as new artists rotate through Immersion.
The idea formed over brunch one morning. After seeing a similar concept in Charlotte, the Middleton family knew Columbia needed an interactive art experience.

We see so many photo opportunities in y’all future, Columbia. Check out these teasers for a little inspiration.
