Palm Springs Life, December 2006
–The Da Vinci Experience stimulates all the senses at Palm Springs air Museum, which transformed a hangar into 15th century Italy for the exhibition's U.S. debut. [It is] more enterainment and educational, not curatorial. This exhibit's strength [is] in the interactivity between the visitor and the machines [so that kids and adults] can come to grips with how gears, [pulleys, and other devices do their] work.

Westways, November/December 2006
“Five worth the drive. No. 2: The Da Vinci Experience. Visitors step into an Italian-style piazza to enter the exhibition galleries, which highlight a few dozen full-size and interactive machines…all based on Leonardo da Vinci’s 15th-century drawings and notes.”

Palm Springs Life, October 2006
“Gaining an understanding of the thinking behind the famous artist whose inventions out numbered his paintings is best accomplished not by reading his 16th century codices or going to a Ron Howard movie, but rather by looking at his inventions. Perhaps the Da Vinci Experience will inspire more creative minds.”

The Desert Sun, November 3, 2006
“The smell of burning wood wafting through the air. Fall-colored leaves rustling under the footsteps of residents and tourists. A scene from 21st century Palm Springs? For the next five months it sure will be. The Palm Springs Air Museum has been transformed from a World War II aircraft showroom o a 15th-centruy Tuscan street scene as working models of Leonardo da Vinci’s mechanical flight and military inventions go on display.”

Experiencing Leonardo at the Palm Springs Air Museum. In the last few years, the world has rediscovered Leonardo da Vinci through a major work of popular fiction. But the reality of Leonardo’s life is that even the best fiction could not convincingly portray his multifaceted personality or full y document his achievements in the worlds of engineering, design, art, aviation, and construction. The Da Vinci Experience will be at the Palm Springs Air Museum from Nov. 3, 2006 to March 25, 2007.
