Thank you for your inquiry
regarding a group tour of The Brandon Museum. Yes, our current exhibit really
does feature clocks. The exhibit points out the importance of timepieces to
civilization. Symphonies and constellations have been named for clocks. During
the fourteenth century, the development of clock towers marked the rise of a
business mentality.
The museum provides several ways
to explore these as well as many other details. On the half hour we present a
15-minute film that shows how clocks and society have kept each other going.
Then, on the hour, pandemonium breaks loose for 90 seconds as 104 clocks chime,
gong, or chirp to mark the new hour. Each clock, whether ornate or humorous,
gives insight into how we view time.
The Brandon Museum is open from
10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Tuesday through Saturday and 1 p.m. to 6 p.m. on Sundays. We
are closed on Monday. Please let us know if we can provide any further
assistance.
