|
Closes September 2
The Oregon Museum of Science and Industry (OMSI) has received a $395,000 grant from the M.J. Murdock Charitable Trust to renovate the OMSI Science Store and OMNIMAX Dome Theater. The upgrades to these popular OMSI attractions will improve the experience for OMSI visitors and increase earned revenues to help support OMSI's mission of creating engaging science learning experiences.
With a five-story domed screen and 30-degree stadium seating, the OMNIMAX Dome Theater provides a unique immersive educational experience and is the only large format dome theater in the state. Renovations to the theater will include new seats, flooring, carpet, lighting, and more.
The OMNIMAX Theater will re-open on Sept. 27 with the new film, Wild Ocean.

With a five-story domed screen covering 6532 square feet of projection surface, and 30-degree, stadium seating, the OMNIMAX® Dome Theater is a cinematic experience unlike any other. The theater's IMAX® projection system uses the largest film frame in the motion picture industry. Each frame is ten times the size of standard 35mm film. The large image puts you in the center of the action, while a custom-designed 15,000 watt digital surround sound system produces audio to match the intensity of the visual images.
