Museum From Home

Anthropology’s storerooms are loaded with amazing items and each one has a story to tell.  Come explore our collections with a selection of curated narratives about items rarely seen on the museum floor.  Learn about the cultures, histories, and surrounding environments of the people behind the objects and discover the journeys the items travelled to find their way to NHM.
