The Clockwork Garden
At the launch of our brand new adventure trail and magical interactive exhibition, we invite you to explore the beautiful gardens at Quarry Bank, Manchester and help the Mechanical Seed settle into its new home. Guided by one of our illustrated maps, come on an adventure with our curious Garden Philosophers. Join them to investigate the science, mythology and mechanics of gardens through workshops and storytelling – and report back to the Mechanical Seed which has sprouted and unfurled into a magnificent magnetic heuristic exhibition.
Travelling through all six dimensions to be with us for the event are our Garden Philosophers: Harriet Fink, Tim Godwin, Oliver Wallace, Stephen Whitehead, and Victoria Willmott will be reporting live for the
The HoFT Examiner – our intergalactic news service.
