Stereoscopy Day is an international celebration of the birth of stereoscopic 3-D.

Founded by the Brian May Archive of Stereoscopy, it celebrates:

• The inventor of stereoscopy, British polymath Sir Charles Wheatstone.
• Stereoscopy’s pioneers and their successors, up to the present day.
• The long history of the medium, from its first Golden Age and subsequent periods of popularity.
• Its rich diversity and multiple uses in various fields.
• The sheer immersive magic it can bring to images, and other applications.

Stereoscopy Day can be honoured in many ways to promote the history and present uses of this wonderful medium, including:

• Sharing stereoscopic 3-D-related posts on social media, such as stereo photos you’ve taken yourself, or highlighting stereoscopic treasures within collections (don’t forget to add #StereoscopyDay)
• Talks
• Presentations
• Watching your favourite 3-D movie
• Taking your own stereoscopic 3-D photos
• Making your own stereoscopic artworks: analogue, digital, even using AI
• Meetings
• Interactive displays
• Workshops
• Exhibitions
• Special Discounts

No matter where you are in the world, you’re invited to join in and celebrate #StereoscopyDay
