The Museum of Transology (MoT) has been collecting objects and stories from the trans, non-binary and intersex community for over a decade. With almost 1000 objects and 2000 protest placards amassed, it's now the world's biggest collection of material culture representing our gender identities, our lived experiences and our trans and intersex bodies.

The entire collection has been archived and documented by with our own hands, in our own words by our Community Curators. Our curatorial activism has been strategised to halt the erasure of transcrestry by saving our voices in history. This ensures we secure an historical counternarrative to the legal systems that criminalise us, the medical systems that pathologise us, the politicians who debate us and the media that sensationalise our lives. Never again can anyone claim that we do not exist.

The MoT's collection is held at the Bishopsgate Institute's Special Collections and Archives. Objects are available for members of the community, their friends and families, community groups, researchers and educators to access for free, and are loaned for exhibitions to museums and galleries locally, nationally and internationally.
