Fan Museum Description
The Greenwich Fan Museum is devoted to the art of the fan. It is the only one of its kind in the world and is housed in a restored Georgian house. In 1992 it was an NACF Award Winner.

The Fan Museum presents fans as a piece of art rather than just a piece of equipment for keeping cool. The fans are made from all different fabrics and decorated with various objects. Some of the fans here date to the 11th Century, but the museum has a particular focus on 18th and 19th Century fans.

The Fan Museum presents a permanent collection as well as rotating displays that change three times a year.
