From March 19th to April 18th, 2021, the Shrooms Art Installation will be outside ImaginOn, 300 E 7th Street.

This immersive installation of 10 giant inflatable mushroom shapes are colorful and fun in the daytime. At night they glow.

The installation was designed by Amigo & Amigo. The work was inspired by the mushrooms that popped up in the streets of and industrial section of Sydney, Australia.

While you’re checking out the mushrooms, there’s more to do in the neighborhood, including First Ward Park, 7th Street Public Market, Levine Museum of the New South, and ImaginOn.
