There's a world of colour and sound to explore at Croydon Clocktower. The Fabulous Sound Machines exhibition will be at the venue until Sunday, September 1.

It's an interactive, family-friendly exhibition with pieces that become intriguing new instruments that invite you to touch, explore and play.

On entering the gallery encounter Chromatic Harmony, a walk-in instrument where your movements determine the colours and sounds. Pluck harp-like strings and experience the sounds and colours changing at your touch.

Explore the rest of the gallery to discover more about sound and create your own orchestra of new sounds.

Admission prices: £2.20, children under 16 and other concessions £1.

Open Monday to Saturday, 11am to 5pm; Sundays and Bank Holidays 12noon to 5pm.
