EPIC is a high-tech visitor attraction housed in the brick vaults of the CHQ Building, a beautiful historic warehouse in Dublin’s Docklands. In this museum Irish history has become a dynamic, immersive experience, rather than a long list of names and dates. Thus, here visitors can explore Irish culture and history in a fully interactive way with touch screen video galleries, motion sensor quizzes, remastered audio from 100 years ago, a ‘whispering’ literature gallery and engaging films. The museum is arranged in 20 galleries where it explores the reasons people emigrated and celebrates their impact across the globe. EPIC’s digital storytelling is a sustainable model of exhibition making, allowing the museum to be updated with new stories or recent social changes in Ireland, such as marriage equality. As committed as it is to being an open and accessible museum, it has an app in multiple languages that can be used to assist the wider museum experience. Find out more at: https://epicchq.com
