The Hollywood Museum is a museum in Hollywood, California that houses a collection of memorabilia from the history of American motion pictures and television. It is housed in the historic Max Factor Building on Highland Ave, designed by American architect, Simeon Charles Lee.
The collection of the Hollywood Museum contains over 10,000 items including costumes, props, photographs, scripts and other artifacts. Among the exhibits are the original four makeup rooms used by pioneering Hollywood makeup artist Max Factor, one each for redheads, blondes, brownettes and brunettes.
The museum is connected to a branch of Mel's Drive-In restaurant.
In June 2016, during LGBT Pride Month, the museum hosted an exhibition called "Reel to Real: Portrayals and Perceptions of Gays in Hollywood".
