Boyer Gallery

Boyer Gallery

The Boyer Gallery, officially known as the Paul Boyer Museum of Animated Carvings, 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.
