About Museum of the Home  

History. Museum of the Home is in Hoxton, long an area of diverse and shifting communities. We opened in 1914 as the Geffrye Museum of furniture and woodwork and, over the last 120 years, have developed a focus on domestic experience, changing our name and identity in 2019. The Museum is located in almshouses built in 1714 with a bequest from Sir Robert Geffrye, a merchant who made some of his money from investments in transatlantic slavery. We are now reassessing this legacy through our programmes and creative partnerships. 

Transformation.  In June 2021, we reopened to visitors following an £18.4 million redevelopment that nearly doubled public space - with new galleries, learning spaces, café, entrance hub and collections study room. In July 2024 we completed the first stage of the transformation of some of our famous room sets from the 1870s to the  future. Our new rooms explore everyday domestic experiences and expand representation of migration and gender identity in the UK, alongside stories of style, taste and design. Together with our visitors, we reveal diverse, thought-provoking and personal stories of home through collections, exhibitions, events, performance and debate.

Working in partnership. We work with international partners and collaborate across the UK to support original research into and responses to the meaning of home, past, present and future.

Communities. We have active programmes with local community groups, including the East and South-East Asian communities. 

Collections. We have a collection of around 40,000 objects, including our library and archives. Going forward we want to expand and diversify these collections, to represent more experiences of home and home life. 

Charitable status. We are an independent charitable company limited by guarantee set up as the Geffrye Museum Trust in 1990, registered charity number 803052, company number 2476642. 

Funding. The Department for Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS) sponsors the Trust through grant-in-aid. We supplement this from earned income, donations and sponsorship.
