Behold the glory of a bad gift! Be it given out of obligation, wild misjudgements in character, or pure apathy, bad gifts hold a special place in our hearts and in our homes. We feel compelled to keep these gifts, even though we don’t want, like, or need them. The Museum of Bad Gifts will put bad gifts in center stage as we celebrate their glorious awkwardness, the chaos of holiday consumption, and the rituals of giving/receiving.
The Museum of Bad Gifts will feature:
Bad gifts that have been reinterpreted and elevated by a stellar selection of artists.
An exhibit of bad gifts (registration for bad gifts open until December 21)
A bad gift destruction and restruction zone where you can transform recently received bad gifts into a collaborative bad gift sculpture.
Have you been the recipient of a bad gift?*
The Museum of Bad Gifts would like to put your bad gifts on display for the world to appreciate.

Registration closes on December 21.
* Bad gifts are completely subjective. Bad gifts are not exclusive to the holiday season. At the Museum of Bag Gifts, we believe all bad gifts should be celebrated equally.
