    Dinosaurs in Motion Exhibition

    In this unique, new exhibition, dinosaurs are the medium for educating and exciting multi-generational families on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics) concepts. Dinosaurs in Motion educates the visitor by using 14 magnificent, fully interactive, recycled metal dinosaur sculptures with exposed mechanics inspired by actual fossils. The exhibition theme captivates the visitor by drawing them into the powerful “brand” of dinosaurs, while creating a unique opportunity to teach and interact with the basic principles of STEAM. A truly interactive, engaging and fun STEAM exhibition for all ages!

About

Dinosaurs in Motion is a new, interactive, engaging STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts & Mathematics) exhibition that is truly for visitors of all ages. Dinosaurs in Motion engages and educates the visitor by using 14 magnificent, fully interactive, recycled metal dinosaur sculptures with exposed mechanics inspired by actual fossils.

Dinosaurs in Motion is an amazing blend of art, science and innovation. Thus, the exhibition weaves these themes throughout, focusing on:

  • Art: Sketching/drawing/Sculpting
  • Science: Kinetics/biomechanics/Robotics
  • Innovation: Observing/Experimenting

The visitor is taken on an apprentice’s journey to learn about art, science and innovation that ends in a journeyman’s workshop. The narrative is reinforced with experiential learning, as every piece is interactive for visitors to touch and learn. Not only are the dinosaurs within the exhibition fascinating and marketable, but also the educational materials are extremely topical and digestible.

The moving, human element to the exhibition lies in the story of the artist, John Payne, who truly is the heart of Dinosaurs in Motion. Through video and interactives, visitors will walk away with Payne's inspiring message: "If you can dream it, you can do it." The exhibition is one that inspires guests to learn, discover and create as they have done throughout the exhibition.

  • Dinosaurs in Motion presents STEAM concepts in a very creative way. It was markedly different from other dinosaur-themed exhibitions and was very popular with both children and adults. We experienced a 40% increase in attendance of Dinosaurs in Motion compared to exhibitions from the previous year.

  • Dinosaurs in Motion is a great example of STEAM, with the physics of pulleys (Science and Engineering), sculptures (Art), welding (Making), and of course the mobile dinosaur skeletons set in an exciting and engaging layout. We were thrilled with the many ways our audiences enjoyed and interacted with the exhibition. We took a financial risk to host this exhibition, and it performed even better than we had planned or hoped. It set a new standard for success at TELUS Spark.

  • Dinosaurs in Motion performed amazingly, tying in very well with our Explore More Labs and tinkering efforts at Discovery Place. It was a great exhibition that merged dinosaurs, engineering, and art. Imagine Exhibitions provided turnkey services that made the opening both effortless and cost effective.

  • We were thrilled with Dinosaurs in Motion! The exhibition proved to be a great attendance draw and the content is highly engaging, entertaining, and educational. The STEAM-related content resonated very well with school and youth groups, and the interactives with the 14 dinosaurs featured in the exhibition were great fun for all of our guests. Kudos to Imagine Exhibitions for bringing us a truly fantastic exhibition!
