The Man in the Tuskhut welcomes strangers for a 20-minute, solitary encounter with cutting edge technology in the Velaslavasay Panorama’s famed exhibit, The Nova Tuskhut.

During your visit you will receive souvenir postcards, enjoy a short documentary on the mysterious man in the hut and explore the Velaslavasay Panorama's exhibits, including: Shengjing Panorama, the Gardens of the Illustrious Pacific Rim and the VP's latest installation - Frontier Saloon, a Pre-Prohibition-Era boomtown “public house” symbolic of frontier towns of the imaginary Old West, Far North, Far South and Far East (open 5:30pm-9pm).

     

    ...along the very skirmish line of civilization where the turning of a spade has oftentimes led to the discovery of a fortune…in that terrible Wonderland of the North…no pictures we have seen, no descriptions we have read or heard, compare with reality.


 

    "Few experiences in recent years compare to my encounter with The Man in the Tuskhut. Fascinating, surprising, waggish, and engrossing, you don’t want to miss this. Take a seat, put your phone away and let the man stare (metaphorically) deep into your soul."

    -Joanne McNeil, author of Wrong Way and Lurking
