In January, 2018, the Peale received a mysterious package which included detailed plans on how to build a 200-year time machine.
The decision was made to follow the plans and build the time machine in secret. After nine-months of construction at a remote location, the time machine has been thoroughly tested and proven safe, and we are thrilled to now offer Time Travel Tours to the general public, as well as researchers, educators and historians.
Hear the artist and photographer Devin Allen talk and perform as he muses about his exhibition "Devin: Allen, Spaces of the Un-Entitled. The exhibition is a visual analysis of architecture and its impact on people of impoverished communities and runs at the Peale from February 7 – March 22, 2019. The event costs $20, and the exhibition is free to the public.
