Archived Rooms

The Museum of Care does not delete Rooms but, when Rooms are no longer in use, they appear as Archived Rooms. We honor the right of curators/authors to decide the future of their Rooms. However, if you are the curator of a Dusty Old Room and would like someone to take care of your Room, then please contact us via info@davidgraeber.org, and we will make it available.
