How to Curate a Tiny Local Museum

Discover how ordinary people across Europe are building small, powerful community museums that bring local history to life.

Your neighbourhood has a story worth telling

A tiny local museum, sometimes called a micro-museum or neighbourhood museum, is a small, community-run space that collects and displays objects, stories, and photographs from a specific place or community. It can occupy a single room, a shop window, or even a repurposed bus shelter. You do not need a grand building or a professional art degree to start one.
