313 Presents is extending Detroit’s “Beyond Van Gogh: The Immersive Experience” exhibit at the TCF Center until Sunday, October 3, 2021.

The increase in dates is “due to the public’s response.”

Guests of “Beyond Van Gogh” view more than 300 masterpieces, including classics such as “The Starry Night,” “Sunflowers,” and “Café Terrace at Night.”

“Van Gogh’s art comes to life by appearing and disappearing, flowing across multiple surfaces, and heightening the senses with their immense detail,” a press release states. “Through his own words set to a symphonic score, guests come to a new appreciation of this tortured artist’s stunning work. It’s no surprise that millions of people all over the world credit Van Gogh with enhancing their relationship with art. Beyond Van Gogh will only deepen it further.”

Tickets for the newly announced dates are on sale now at www.vangoghdetroit.com.
