Commissions, partnerships and residencies - Museum of the Home

Home » Our work » Commissions, partnerships and residencies

We partner with a diverse range of emerging and established artists, designers and learning organisations to create new and unique works that reflect the theme of home.

Our partnerships feed directly into our work as a museum, producing events, exhibitions and installations that focus on important issues, and engage with local community groups.
