Here resides the growing collection of works which all contribute to the existence of the Crab Museum. The question of whether there should be a Crab Museum, which nobody asked for the creation of, has compelled Rex Birchmore to make sure one exists.

Filled with drawings, paintings, specimens and objects, all with their own individual story, the Crab Museum ties its tide-line of curiosities together using crabs, beached plastic and 'Petrie'.  All natural life used in the creation of the Crab Museum were found, or washed up, already dead from natural causes. 

Opening - Friday 21st February 6-8pm

Open - Saturday 22nd, Thursday 27th, Friday 28th and Saturday 29th February 10am - 3pm

Workshop - Saturday 22nd February 10am - 3pm

The Crab Museum workshop invites you to add more artifacts to its collection. The Crab Museum is looking forward to seeing which lifeforms you would add to it and how they would interact with the world.  

Drop in and enjoy the space and then get drawing
