The Herbert Art Gallery and Museum in Coventry, UK, has installed a vending machine offering works by local artists, as well as art kits, materials and games.
The machine, located on the first floor of the gallery, forms part of the museum’s Work on Walls exhibitions and includes both free and paid-for items, with revenue from the vending machine being used to support the local art scene.
The art vending machine was created by Birmingham-based artist Clara Stromeyer, who began the project in 2020 by filling a spare vending machine with arts and crafts materials.
“The concept of the machine is so original and unique but the idea behind it – making art accessible while supporting the local art community – is really in line with our values,” said Kirstie Lewis, events curator at the Herbert Art Gallery and Museum.
