A Museum on Wheels: The Office of Collecting & Design Hits the Road! The Office of Collecting & Design, an enchanting museum of lost and forgotten objects, is taking its beloved collection on tour! Known as a "nostalgia machine," this interactive traveling museum invites visitors to step inside a 42-foot wonderland of drawers, boxes, and cabinets filled with carefully curated curiosities. Guests can explore the space at their own pace or engage in hands-on experiences like a scavenger hunt or a flatlay photography session. Each stop on the tour features collaborations with local artists and creative spaces, ensuring a fresh and immersive experience in every city. The journey kicks off in San Diego with a special partnership between the Office and ArtReach San Diego. From April 17–19, the mobile museum will be open outside ArtReach’s Hillcrest studio, welcoming guests (adults only) during the nonprofit’s daily hours. Visitors can also enjoy Mini Visits during ArtReach’s 21+ Art Party on April 18 (tickets to the Art Party required), while families and young artists can participate in a specially designed workshop inside ArtReach’s studio on Saturday, April 19. Limited tickets are available for visits, scavenger hunts, and flatlay sessions inside the Museum's traveling exhibition at www.officeofcollecting.com! Tickets for the kid-friendly workshop on April 19 are available here. Regular Visit: Explore the space at your own pace. Open every drawer, look in every box, and find all the hidden details. 1 hour, on the hour, $22 per person. Scavenger Hunt: Delve into the museum while following our hand-drawn map to hunt down some of our favorite objects in the collections!

Flatlay Session: Curate, sort, arrange, and photograph your own flatlay, and then go home with a tiny instant film print of your creation. 2 hours, on the hour, $75 per person — only available during certain time slots).
