This exhibition celebrates the fascinating world of automata (mechanical sculpture) and show-cases exhibits from some the finest contemporary automata makers. 

Marvel at these colourful, humorous and thought-provoking masterpieces, which come to life at the push of a button. You can also learn more about the artists who made them, and the revival of this inspiring art form.  

The automata are on tour from Cabaret Mechanical Theatre whose exhibits have recently been enjoyed in New Zealand, Germany and the USA, with the collections being seen by over ten million people worldwide over the past 30 years.
