Audience Experience

The Art of Listening: Under Water will be presented in the Lantern, a large, open space on the top floor of the Lenfest Center for the Arts. It will be open by registration for up to 25 visitors per hour. Because the Lantern is over 4,000 square feet, there will be ample space for physical distancing. You may stay as long as you wish, during your registered hour. (See below for COVID-19 protocols.) 

During your visit to The Art of Listening: Under Water, you may stand, walk around, recline, or sit on an ottoman. If you prefer to sit in an upright chair with a back, please alert an attendant. We will be happy to provide one. 

We suggest that you try sitting toward the center of the room with your eyes closed.

The Lantern features large windows and a skylight. The Art of Listening: Under Water will not use artificial lighting. If you wish to experience the installation during daylight, please consider coming between 2–5pm. If you prefer to experience it as the sun sets, consider coming between 5–6pm. If you prefer experiencing the installation in relative darkness — illuminated by the lights of Manhattan — then consider coming between 6–8pm. (Even during those hours, the space will not be completely dark, and all Exit signs will of course be illuminated and clearly marked.)

We encourage multiple visits (if you would like to experience the work during daylight, as the sun sets, and in the evening). 

All guests are required to wear a surgical or higher quality mask while inside the building. There is a limit of one (1) reservation per person, per hour and each reservation must be held in the name of the guest attending the event.
