#4 Art Museum in Florida The Experience: Inside our 5,000-square-foot space, we blend literature, film history, and cutting-edge technology. The Immersive Wizard of Oz Experience uses 30+ laser projectors to surround you with the world of Munchkin Land, the Emerald City, and a custom “Deep Space” scene using actual James Webb Space Telescope imagery. Guests also enjoy the Immersive Van Gogh exhibit, offering a vivid, 360-degree introduction to fine art.
The Collection: Explore one of the world’s largest private collections of Oz memorabilia, featuring over 2,000 artifacts. Highlights include original 1939 film props—like Dorothy’s dress and a Winkie spear—and rare first editions, including a May 1900 pre-publication copy of The Wonderful Wizard of Oz. Kids can enjoy an interactive animal scavenger hunt and a dedicated “Munchkin Room” for play, while adults marvel at the rare pop-culture history.
Plan Your Visit: Most guests spend 1–2 hours exploring, making this the perfect air-conditioned addition to a beach day or cruise stop. Come see why the “Yellow Brick Road” is the top-rated path on the Space Coast!
