Our brand new exhibition, all about the players of Animal Crossing: New Horizons is now live! Explore the incredible stories of those that played #ACNH over the past 18 months. We’d like to thank everyone who submitted their story to our collection. We’ve had hundreds and hundreds of amazing experiences shared with us, and this exhibition is just the start!

Hands up if the museum you've spent the most time in since last year is Blathers'? It was the same for us (and we *are* a museum). For many, Animal Crossing: New Horizons has been a cultural hotspot over the past year. It’s been a place where people have showcased art, held protests and generally kept social.

It’s the one year anniversary of *waves hands in the air* this. We’d just like to give a shout out to the one constant Animal Crossing villager, who’s been there through it all - Sly!  Do you still have any villagers that have gotten you through this past year? We’re collecting your lockdown Animal Crossing stories, to exhibit later this year

ACNH is nothing if not relatable

Gorgeous! What pre-pandemic activities have you moved onto your ACNH island over the past year? Let us know

How peaceful! We’re wondering if Animal Crossing has kept you calm and grounded during the pandemic. Submit your stories to the Animal Crossing Diaries

Working remotely can be super hard. Maybe we should try this at the museum? 🤔

We may not have a reopening date quite yet, but Sonic is always ready to start welcoming you back to the museum safely!

Amazing! Creativity in the game is one thing, but ACNH has inspired wonderful crafts outside of the game too! Wonder if we’ll receive any physical objects during the Animal Crossing Diaries project!

Virtual Dates with the EZ

Maglinis at magdamo sa island, maghukay, magtanim at manira ng halaman, magnakaw ng kalabasa, at magtapon ng oras nang magkasama. 

Last photo: The moment she saw my toilet installed inside a huge room with nothing else but hieroglyphs and a wall mount towel rack, she almost cried laughing. That’s when I decided to keep that room as is ‘cos my character’s rich AF.

So many feels! It's easy to underestimate the importance of Animal Crossing: New Horizons and its ability to bring a smile to our faces during the Pandemic. We need your help to capture this in the Animal Crossing Diaries 

Everything sucks but bug catching is fun
