Horniman Museum & Gardens | World Gallery Opens

The Horniman Museum and Gardens’ new World Gallery will open to the public on 29 June 2018, marking a major moment in the Horniman’s history. The new gallery will provide? ?a beautiful and contemporary setting for its world-class anthropology collection, with over 3,000 objects telling stories from around the world that explore what it means to be human. Occupying one half of the Horniman’s original building in Forest Hill, South London, the World Gallery is the culmination of more than five years’ work to transform this historic gallery and recapture the light and spirit of the Horniman when it first opened on 29 June 1901.
