An object storytelling event. Bring an object. Curate a mini exhibition. Tell its story.
About this Event

Your home is full of treasures! In Your Home Is a Museum, participants are invited to bring a meaningful object from home - something you were given, something you found in the floorboards or the backyard, something you inherited, or something that has always been important to you for whatever reason. An object with a full-bodied 5-10 minute story.

We’ll create a display together from all the objects and then listen to each other's stories. Think the “Moth” radio hour or “Antiques Road Show.”

Explore how personal stories become part of shared history.
No museum experience required, just curiosity and a story to tell.
