The Museum of Interesting Things is a traveling interactive demonstration/exhibition of antiques and inventions that goes to schools and events and inspires kids and adults to be curious. We bring back tinkering. I like to say it shows kids and adults that their ipods did not pop out of thin air! Like a circus…just no elephants!

“Eureka!”
The History of Invention Show
Exploring the industrial revolution and mechanical era, with interactive demonstrations of such items as the steam engine, Thomas Edison cylinder phonograph, windup toys, Stereo/3D photography, mechanical door bells and mechanical/gear based household items such as butter churns and apple peelers.
Coinciding with the Core Content Curriculum Standards for Science, Social Studies, Technology and STEM/STEAM

OK, so everyone asks me for special custom exhibitions: Yes we can!

Let me know what you are teaching or what event you are doing and we can work together to bring some of our things to inspire you.

We also do a workshop on Invention for adults and kids!

I am also now on the advisory board to the NY Stereoscopic society, the Beaux Arts Society and the 19th Century Society and an organizer for the Steampunk meet.

Lets Bring Back Curiosity and Tinkering!

You can now actually visit the curator’s place at Museum of Interesting Things in the village! If you wanna schedule a visit just give a call or email!

You will see, touch and have demonstrated:

1) Showing and demonstrating the items that travel and are the “Stars” of the Museum of Interesting Things exhibition,
like Edison Wax Cylinder players.
2) Showing the larger historic items that do not get to travel due to their size and so are a special treat for those who come here.
Like the Moviola that worked on many Hollywood movies!
3) Then you can ask about anything that your eye catches of course and most everything is interactive.
You can ask about the price of tea in China or the Transatlantic Cable or anything we have…your choice 🙂
4) Lastly the special treat for each person in your group is getting to open a new acquisition/package for the Museum that no one has seen before including me!
Imagine going to the MET and opening a mummy! I have not ordered a mummy yet…but ya never know!
Basically you get the cool parts of our show, Eureka! The History of Invention.
Call 212 274 8757 to schedule before you come
