The Foundling Museum tells the story of the UK’s first children’s charity and its first public art gallery – the outcome of a centuries-old project designed to care for and educate London’s most vulnerable children.
The Foundling Museum’s mission is to inspire change through the power of the arts.
We are the only museum to celebrate care-experienced people, and all those who care for them.
Visit us to uncover the incredible story of Thomas Coram’s Hospital for foundlings, see work by outstanding contemporary artists, and explore our ever-changing programmes of exhibitions, displays and events.
