This exhibition will feature a colourful display of original artworks, videos, production toy samples and prototype models.
‘Raffo Pape & Woodward’ with their team of inventive designers have been quietly creating and developing product concepts for the children’s toy industry from their design studio in Hitchin.
For over 40 years their designs have been manufactured and sold through major companies like Fisher Price, Tomy, Playskool and Matchbox. Projects include work on brands such as Action Man, Play Doh, ELC, and Thomas the Tank Engine.
This family friendly exhibition, ‘Hitchin’s Toy Story’, will feature a colourful display of original artworks, videos, production toy samples and prototype models from their portfolio to date.
