WELCOME !
You are visiting the first virtual museum dedicated entirely to the lived experience of invisible illnesses and disabilities! How fantastic is that? At The Lyme Museum, we are making invisible illnesses and disabilities visible, one flat lay and one story at a time. And you can even get involved! We are working at the intersection of medical humanities, creative health and museum ethics, to radically transform the narrative around invisibile illnesses and disabilities in the heritage sector. And we share fantastic art and visual storytelling along the way. This painting, for xample, is by our artist in residence, Caitlin Smits.
