The March is an immersive exhibit featuring groundbreaking immersive technologies. It starts with an audio experience that teaches you about the beginnings of the civil rights movement. You are then invited to travel back in time via virtual reality to attend the 1963 March on Washington and witness firsthand the iconic "I Have a Dream” speech.
Become one of the 250,000-plus people who came to participate that day—and witness firsthand as Martin Luther King Jr. delivers his iconic “I Have a Dream” speech—in a genre-pushing virtual reality experience that draws on the personal stories of organizers and demonstrators who were there. The March can accommodate four visitors at once; time slots must be booked in advance. Besides museum admission, there is no additional cost to attend The March.
TIME has also partnered with AI storytelling pioneer StoryFile to create an interactive video interview with a real civil rights activist. This installation is included with museum admission and does not require advance booking. #MarchOn

In order to bring the 1963 March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom to life in virtual reality, TIME embarked on a three-year journey to virtualize Martin Luther King Jr. and his iconic "I Have a Dream" speech. See the journey-and the groundbreaking technology used to create
the most realistic re-creation
of King—with partners V.A.L.I.S. studio and RYOT,
as well as JuVee Productions and VFX production studio
Digital Domain.
In 1963, a quarter of a million people came out to participate in the March on Washington for Jobs and Freedom. Now, in virtual reality, a new generation can experience the impact and emotion of that day.
Learn how this immersive experience is allowing one man who attended the 1963 demonstration to revisit that history with his great-grandson, one of 80 actors selected from thousands who responded to a call to participate in the motion-capture stage of the process. Learn more
The March is an immersive virtual-reality project which draws on the personal experiences of organizers and demonstrators. Through photogrammetry, motion capture and 3-D animation, participants will become a part of the March on Washington.
