=== Exhibitions === In 1987, an exhibition based on the book and organized by a Japanese exhibition company, featuring a number of "life"-size models of the animals featured therein, was displayed at the Denver Museum of Natural History, from 6 February to 3 May, and then at the California Academy of Sciences from 5 June to 7 September. The exhibition began with a "time tunnel", which visitors passed through before being met by several dioramas featuring the speculative future animals, including two full-size animatronic figures produced by Dinamation. According to spokespeople from both museums, the exhibition garnered positive reactions from visitors. The exhibition also included illustrations Dixon had previously made of a possible future evolutionary path of humanity, previously published under the title Visions of Man Evolved in Omni in 1982. Prior to this, a limited version of the exhibition (featuring 8 models rather than the 19 dioramas featured in the 1987 version) had been at the Newquay Zoo in Cornwall in 1983, in Japan in 1984 and in various locations within the United States from 1985 to 1986. The exhibition was later featured at the Orlando Science Center in 1989 and the Science Museum of Western Virginia in 1992. A new After Man exhibition was organized at the Fukuoka City Science Museum in Fukuoka, Japan in 2021. Running from 20 November 2021 to 23 January 2022, the exhibition featured new models of animals from the book alongside animations of them in natural environments. The exhibition also featured new animals designed for the world of After Man by Dixon. The exhibition was then put up at the Nagasaki City Dinosaur Museum in Nagasaki from 26 March to 7 October 2022.
