Come and discover the weird and whimsical world of automata with this short workshop from The Quixotorium introducing the first in a series of lever-operated mechanisms based around a clothes peg. Using simple materials and hand tools you will create a twitching moustache automaton: a curiosity to entertain and delight.
All materials provided – no prior experience necessary. Existing facial hair welcome. Workshop is for adults 16+.
Ticket price includes a pint of THH own brand beer/cider, a 0% abv beer, a soft drink from the gun or a ½ pint of kombucha.
