Diorama Discussion

Diorama Talks with Paul Lovett.  Visit the Rehoboth Avenue Railroad Era diorama with Paul Lovett.  The dust covers are removed allowing visitors to peer closely at the display and the features are electrified. The train moves to the station; the merry-go-round rotates; the smoke stack smokes; Scott’s Chapel’s bell tolls; seagulls squawk; farm animals are heard. See the town as it might have looked at night. 

Each presentation is different depending on the interests of the attendees.
