Wallace & Gromitâ„¢: Get Cracking! is coming to the Children’s Museum of Evansville!
Wallace & Gromit™: Get Cracking!, an interactive exhibit based on popular film and television characters, will open at the Children’s Museum of Evansville (cMoe) on September 23, 2023. This brand-new exhibit, created by Minnesota Children’s Museum in partnership with Aardman, runs through January 7, 2024.
In this hands-on exhibit, visitors enter the North England home of cheese-loving inventor Wallace and his loyal and intelligent dog, Gromit. Designed for children ages 3 through 9, Wallace & Gromitâ„¢: Get Cracking! builds on problem-solving themes found throughout the films in fun, engaging ways.
In Wallace’s world, inventions and contraptions often go terribly – but hilariously! – wrong, providing a natural opportunity to explore themes around problem-solving and resilience in a safe and lighthearted manner. Through a mix of unique and meaningful experiences, the exhibit focuses on STEM-based problem-solving, with the aim of making the problem-solving process explicit.
