Museum-sponsored virtual reality (VR) exhibitions have become more common during the COVID-19 pandemic, with many established cultural institutions investing in virtual museum tours. However well-meaning, these exhibitions preserve the “do not touch” exclusionary qualities that often make museums a site for passive cultural consumption. In this poster presentation, student artists, faculty and IT staff at California State University, San Bernardino (CSUSB) explain how they used a variety of extended reality (XR) media during the pandemic to make artistic exhibitions more inclusive and engaging for a variety of publics.
