Spitfire Shipwreck Virtual Reality Experience 

September 15 10:00 am 12:00 pm

Free

Want to know what it’s like to explore an underwater shipwreck?  

Dive into the Lake Champlain Maritime Museum’s virtual reality tour of Spitfire, a 1776 gunboat that sank during the American retreat from Valcour Bay. Using thousands of photos, sonar images, and videos of the wreck, we created a detailed, 3-dimensional model which Champlain College students transformed into this virtual reality dive. Stop by Fragments: Voices of the American Revolution on Lake Champlain and experience it for yourself!

Accessibility: From the flexi-pave path, there is one wheelchair accessible entrance to Fragments on the north side of the building. The exhibit space is fully ADA compliant.
