interactive exhibit
Touchable museum piece
An interactive exhibit is a display designed for hands-on participation rather than passive viewing.
Common in museums, science centers, and trade shows, these exhibits invite visitors to touch, manipulate, or otherwise engage with the material: The children spent an hour at the interactive exhibit about dinosaurs.
The term distinguishes such displays from traditional look-but-don't-touch presentations.
