BLUE MOUNTAIN LAKE - In the old days, museums put artifacts on display
and explained their significance on accompanying plaques.

Nowadays, museum directors are reinventing that formula by creating
interactive, and sometimes immersive, environments that engage
visitors beyond the age-old, "look but don't touch" aesthetic.

The Adirondack Museum's own immersive project got a $1.4 million boost
when Gov. Andrew Cuomo unleashed the latest round of Regional Economic
Development Council grants earlier this month. The museum had asked
for $2.9 million, but apparently it got what it needed to start moving
forward.
