Automata Exhibition
Machinations is the only permanent exhibition of Contemporary Automata (mechanical moving models) open to the public in the UK.
Most of the exhibition is the collection of Pat Osborne and was on show originally in Liverpool. The collection features nine different contemporary artists/craftsmen.
Some are like moving cartoons, others superbly hand carved or beautifully engineered. The exhibition has an educational value for all ages as well as being great fun!
There is no entry charge but most of the Automata are operated by tokens that can be purchased for only 10p each from the cafe. A few are hand operated.
Whatever your age, whether it be 4 or 104, you will really enjoy the experience of looking around Machinations, it will be unlike anything you have ever seen before.
