The Heath Robinson Museum is the first museum devoted to the work of William Heath Robinson, one of Britain’s best-loved artists. The collection is owned by the William Heath Robinson Trust. The Museum is a national and international centre for the understanding and appreciation of the artist’s work, housing a permanent exhibition of original artwork, books, letters, photographs, film and digital media which will tell the full story of his professional career.

The museum opened on 15 October 2016, but in order to be able to deliver its full range of exhibitions and activities it needs to raise a further £50,000.

Lots 264-282 are sold to benefit the museum. They provide responses from a number of contemporary artists when asked what Heath Robinson would be drawing if he was alive today.
