The Libratory is New Zealand's first dedicated steampunk art gallery and was created by Oamaruvian artist Damien McNamara (also known under the pseudonym Damotimus Tipotus).[1][2] Opened in November 2010,[3] it provides the local steampunk population a gallery in which to display their artwork and sculptures.[4] The venue is located on the first floor of The Woolstore, next to Steampunk HQ, and hosts monthly swap meets where the district's steampunkers exchange ideas, sell goods and model their fashions.[5]
