Demonstrations will be occurring throughout the day; the Wurlitzer Music department will be producing new band organ rolls and Wood carvers will be demonstrating carving techniques traditionally used by the master carvers and journeymen carvers over a hundred years ago. Our children s gallery will be playing a series of vintage Allan Herschell manufacturing test films all day and children can take home a maker challenge kit.
