The Kew Bridge Steam Museum is proud to announce the launch of an exciting new
exhibition,
Design For Living, which opens January 12th 2007 through to April 15th. Come and delve into this bizarre collection of ingenious
domestic gadgets and guess the
obscure purpose of a host of eccentric contraptions.
 The exhibition, on loan from the Museum of Nostalgia,
will engage and amuse everyone, both young and old. Items from the museums
reserve collections will also go on show for the first time including an Aqua
Vibro Massager or electrical stimulator (both of which are genuine medical
treatments not kinky sex toys, but they sound and look bizzare!) Explore this
amazing collection of fascinating and visually intriguing gadgets designed to
make life easier in days gone by, including:
The exhibition contains an eclectic mix of labour saving devices and beautifully luxurious objects for the well to do home, such as a 1901 phonograph. Fascinating and humorous this exhibition will intrigue and amuse and is a testament to our desire for an easier life! Related holiday activities for kids will run during the half-term and Easter holidays. Other Activities at the Museum during this time:
