Beyond Van Gogh The Immersive Experience is open in Hamilton this weekend
Beyond Van Gogh is a new truly immersive experience. While other shows may use virtual reality or still images, Beyond Van Gogh breaks barriers by incorporating both still and moving art.
Masterpieces, now freed from frames, come alive, appear, and disappear, flowing across multi-surfaces, while the minutia of details titillates your heightened senses. The show is projected on every surface around you and makes you feel as though you have stepped directly into a Van Gogh painting.
Beyond Van Gogh is accompanied by a beautiful score and includes many other surprises!

Featuring Ritorno Restaurant

Ritorno is what Chef and Restaurateur Julia Hanna calls a “return to the table, in the Italian way.” In other words a return to traditional Italian food made from scratch with fresh, quality ingredients enjoyed by family and friends.
Have a look at their delicious menu here!
A big part of Ritorno is Julia’s tribute, the “Nonna Wall“. Julia describes it as a small way to honour the women in our lives, our Mothers and Grandmothers. These women fed and nurtured us, often putting their own wants and needs aside.
Weathering Covid over the last 2 years Julia believes that families have rediscovered their kitchens and the good that comes from cooking at home. In order to cultivate this relationship Ritorno has launched ‘At Home – From Our Kitchen To Yours‘ a selection of signature sauces and even Nonna’s gnocchi are available to take home.
They are currently open for limited in-person dining by reservation or walk-in when space is available. Order online for pick up directly through the site or delivery with one of their partners
