Museum of Memories 

After its first online edition in 2021, Museum of Memories is back as a physical, multi-media exhibition of feminist/queer stories of heritage. We invite submissions from Bangalore-based contributors that delve into their personal heritage, both tangible and intangible. How is memory inherited and how does this influence the way we construct our identities? 

We welcome works across mediums and forms—stories of the heritage of women and queer people, and those of us from other oppressed locations be it caste, class, religion, and so on.
 
If you have a work of art, an object of personal sentimental value, a piece of writing, family folklore—or anything that you can envision as an exhibit at the intersections of gender, memory, and heritage, apply now! 

Six submissions will be selected to form the exhibition, which will be held in Bangalore in July 2025. The shortlisted contributors will receive an honorarium of INR 2000 each. 

For any queries, or if English is not your preferred language and you would like to explore other ways of applying, please write to us at info.museumofmemories@gmail.com.

DEADLINE 8 JUNE, 2025 MIDNIGHT IST

The previous edition of this project looked at heritage specifically through the lens of gender, and was made possible with a grant from the British Council. While the previous iteration was curated and contributed to by 18-25 year olds, this time we have done away with the age limit and are exploring larger themes at the intersections of gender, heritage and memory.
