The Mechanical Turk, a work in our first-floor exhibition, Out of the Box: Artists Play Chess, is based on a real-life hoax—a chessplaying “robot” that amazed audiences for 50 years. Create your own self-propelling toy that will have your audience wondering, “How does it work!?”
The Hall of Fame is open from 10am-5pm on Saturdays. Family Day sessions will begin at 11:00am, 1:00pm, and 3:00pm. The tour and project will last approximately one hour. Our craft is recommended for ages 5-12, but children of all ages are welcome!
