Hove Museum of Creativity, Local authority museum in Brighton and Hove, England.
The museum occupies Brooker Hall, an Italianate villa with spacious galleries featuring toy collections, contemporary crafts, and early cinema artifacts.
The building, constructed in 1877 by architect Thomas Lainson, served as accommodation for German prisoners during World War I before becoming a museum in 1927.
The Wizard's Attic toy gallery displays mechanical toys, dollhouses, and rocking horses, while two galleries present the Southern and South East Arts Craft Collection.
The museum offers free admission, wheelchair access, baby changing facilities, and operates Monday, Thursday through Saturday from 10:00 to 17:00, Sundays from 13:00 to 16:00.
The film gallery documents Hove's role in early cinema with a collection of optical toys, magic lanterns, and vintage cameras from the 1890s and 1900s.
