Family looking at museum exhibit

Be part of the weekend celebrations as the Da Vinci machines exhibition opens across the City of Moreton Bay museum network.

Feeling like a weekend brunch event? Join us at Pine Rivers Heritage Museum for a special glimpse into the workings of this unique exhibition experience. You can interact with machines from yesteryear, developed from Leonardo Da Vinci’s original drawings.  

Meet Tom Rizzo, the Director of Exhibitions at Artisans of Florence, who will provide a special insight into the processes used to develop these replicas and how Da Vinci’s imaginative drawings were translated into 3D concepts.

After discovering the intriguing details behind the creation of these models, explore the machines yourself and use the pulleys and cogs that make them work. Marvel at the relevance his creations still have today.  

Free - bookings essential for catering purposes.
