Founded in 1799, the Peabody Essex Museum (PEM) is the country’s oldest continuously operating museum. Explore our world-renowned collections of art and architecture, including a 200-year-old Chinese home.
Join us this fall for Conjuring the Spirit World: Art, Magic, and Mediums. Embark on an interactive journey through the history of séances and magic shows — and learn about the strange connections between them. Plus, see Salem’s only collection of authentic objects from the 1692 Salem Witch Trials.
Check out our events page for spooky art making, curator talks and other October events!
