The Great Rotumpkin at the UVA Rotunda 10/29 – 10/31

The Great Rotumpkin returns to Grounds this spooky season. Using projection mapping, animation, and music, UVA’s most recognizable landmark is transformed into a vivid show of dancing skeletons, creepy pumpkins, bubbling cauldrons, and more. Created by local multimedia artist Jeff Dobrow and The AV Company, this annual tradition invites the entire community to gather and experience the power of creativity, as moving images enliven static space.
