The Museum Without A Home - An Exhibition Of Hospitality

Greece is a country renowned for its contribution to philosophy, democracy and civilization in general. Everyday people across Greece become examples of kindness, humanity and solidarity, offering items to people who have nothing.

Within this framework, Amnesty International in Greece and Oxfam have created The Museum Without A Home wanting to thank Greeks for offering pieces of their lives, both metaphorically and literally, to this cause.

The Museum Without A Home is quite different from the ordinary, since it neither has a specific location nor opening hours, while the objects it displays are not works of art but things that the Greeks offered to people who needed protection and support and that played an important role in their everyday lives.

Look around for the exhibits throughout the city. You’ll find them at particular Public Transport modes (tube, trams and over ground coaches) as well as at the Acropolis Museum, the Stavros Niarchos Foundation Cultural Center, the National Museum of Contemporary Art, the Museum of School Life and Education and the Frissiras Museum. Visit them and listen to their stories; maybe you can identify with one of those!
