“wooden sculptures that move”
The Boyer Gallery, officially known as the Paul Boyer Museum of Animated Carvings and commonly called "The Boyer Museum", is a folk art museum located at 1205 M Street in Belleville, Kansas featuring the animated sculptures of Paul Boyer. Many of the displays are hand carved wooden pieces that have been animated with hand-built motors and mechanics, while others are working models of aircraft or tractor engines. All of the pieces are built from scratch. The gallery was closed for several years, but was reopened in 2007 by Paul Boyer's daughters.
Small little Museum run by the artists daughters. His work is unique and has a folk art style. Worth seeing. The labor and love that he put into each piece is incredible.
Fantastic art at a small museum. Well worth the drive
