The Museum of Public Relations

where past, present, and future are interlocked.

Sure, we save stuff, but only to learn from it and set a new course to tomorrow’s challenges. If we really understand the past, it can be a rudder to the future rather than an anchor holding us where we are.

Look Back | Move Forward

Public relations’ true purpose has been lost in the twists and turns of its history. We celebrate the best of past and current practice to reassert PR’s public relations’ real purpose as a responsible tool of commerce and a catalyst for social progress.
