Winter Tales: An Immersive Experience

This immersive installation brings works from The Westmoreland’s collection to life through multi-projection, surround sound, and animated effects, creating a rich sensory journey through the season of snow. Created by award-winning OLO Creative Farm, Winter Tales draws visitors into winter scenes from Greensburg, Pittsburgh, and beyond. Featuring artists such as William Coventry Wall, Charles W. (Bud) Gibbons, Henry Koerner, and Ron Donoughe, the experience seamlessly blends art and technology to evoke the feeling of stepping inside the paintings. The digital images of the artworks have been enhanced using AI* and other visual effects to enrich the immersive experience. Select original winter works from the collection are also on view.

*Note: As an art museum, we deeply value artists and their work. The talented multimedia designers who created Winter Tales used a variety of digital tools, including some powered by AI technology. Specifically, AI-powered technology was used to scale-up the size of the digitized paintings to fit the physical gallery space. The Museum and designers took great care to maintain the integrity of the original artworks.
