Feel Good in Dopamine Land: An Interactive Museum

15 West Homes July 24, 2024

Welcome to Dopamine Land, an interactive museum that transcends the conventional to ignite your senses. This extraordinary space takes you on a journey through 10 different interactive rooms that promise an exhilarating experience.
 
Get ready to play! Dopamine Land is not just a museum. It’s a playground for the mind, a canvas for creativity, and an immersive experience like never before. Each room within is carefully designed to elicit not just awe but a surge of dopamine—the neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and reward. From meditation to music to mirrors, Dopamine Land offers a truly unique experience appropriate for all ages.
 

Rhythm Studio

Learn how music can unlock dopamine with the beatboxing duo SPIDERHORSE or go solo. In either case, just let the music move you.
 

The Writer’s Loft

Erase your negativity on this unique blank canvas. Take this opportunity to spread positivity throughout the room.
 

Sensory Lab

Engage all of your senses in this surprise-filled room. Learn how touch, taste, sound, and smell play just as much of a role as sight in triggering dopamine.
 

Pillow Fight

What could be better to get you feeling glad than a giant pillow fight?! This high-energy room combines sound, light, and the action of the pillow fight for an exhilarating experience.
 
These are just a few of the rooms at Dopamine Land where curiosity meets wonder, and every step is a step closer to that ultimate dopamine rush. Plan your visit to see what else is in store!
 

Plan Your Visit

The experience is open Thursday through Sunday and tickets are required. Tickets include a scheduled entry time but you can stay as long as you like. 
 

Location

5333 Wisconsin Ave, NW, Washington DC, 20015
