Marches Makers Museum of Curiosity is a collection of ubiquitous and intriguing objects. Visitors to the festival are invited to become co-curators of the collection by contributing stories to build the object biographies. Details about where the acquisitions came from, what they are, who may have owned them, what events they may have been present at. Join us in creating imaginary tales to attach to the museum exhibits.
