Paradox Museum New Jersey to Open at American Dream

originally published: 06/20/2023

(EAST RUTHERFORD, NJ) -- Paradox Museum's third US location will officially open its doors this July at American Dream, the entertainment, shopping, and dining destination in East Rutherford. With more than 70 “mind-twisting, eye-tricking” exhibits encompassing 11,000-square-feet, Paradox Museum New Jersey will force guests to rethink what’s real and what’s not, with exhibits that will challenge the senses and make for the ultimate photo opp.

“We’re incredibly excited to finally be able to bring the unique, one-of-a-kind experience that only the Paradox Museum can offer, to New Jersey,” said Marc Gregory Tipton, regional sales and marketing manager, Paradox Museum. “We could not imagine a better home for the museum than American Dream and know that once guests enter through our doors they’ll be drawn to fully explore the intricacies of the paradoxes before them, challenged to think again and again about what’s real and what’s not.”

The museum is also now hiring, seeking qualified applicants for over 25 open positions, ranging from guides to supervisors. Additional information is available at ParadoxMuseum.com/careers.

Adding to a large list of amazing American Dream attractions, Paradox Museum New Jersey will feature dozens of stand-out exhibits, including its popular Upside Down room where all objects - and people - will seem to defy gravity. Curated specifically for the New Jersey market, the Upside Down Room at Paradox Museum New Jersey will be set in a “Jersey Diner”. Guests can strike poses as though they’re sipping on a milkshake at the bar or sitting down ready to order dinner, all while through the lens of their camera, their world literally gets turned upside down.

Ideal for all ages and interests, a trip through Paradox Museum New Jersey will take visitors approximately 60 to 90 minutes. Team members will be available to guide guests as they explore elaborate exhibits and puzzling experiences, all while learning about vision, perception and the human brain. The museum will also include the Paradox Boutique where visitors can purchase souvenirs, games, clothing, accessories, and gadgets exuding paradox. The collection of fun, entertaining and educational products has been curated to challenge perspectives to exercise the brain.
