find themselves disconnected from the outside world -literally- and fully entrenched
in the hypnotic digital realm of David Haller.
Fans will also have the opportunity to step inside the “AMERICAN HORROR STORY
Eccentricities Gallery,” featuring a collection of art and oddities inspired by AHS

Mac, David Flores and Oscar Magallanes.

inside the heads of their favorite Archer characters with this whimsical
installation by capturing a photo of themselves inside suspended sound boxes adorned
with character art. Each sound box features classic sound bites from the show.

Irish Pub to FXhibition in celebration of the upcoming 13th season of It’s Always
Sunny in Philadelphia. The space will feature playful camp-themed elements including
