Young V&A has been announced as Art Fund Museum of the Year, and presented with the £120,000 prize – the largest museum prize in the World!

Culture Secretary, Lisa Nandy said:

“Our world-leading museums are a source of creativity and curiosity that can inspire lifelong passions for learning, history and the arts”.

Jenny Waldman, director, Art Fund, and chair of the judges for Art Fund Museum of the Year said:

“Young V&A is a truly inspirational museum. With a brief from its young co-designers to create ‘the world’s most joyful museum,’ Young V&A has achieved that and more. It has radically reimagined the museum with and for young people, creating a museum experience that’s active, empowering and dynamic, centred on learning through play. Young V&A has established a deep engagement with its local community and, at the same time, it has become an international beacon for what a children’s museum can be ”.

Congratulations to all of the team at Young V&A.

Montfort Catering Consultants supported the V&A with a café scoping and catering tender exercise to identify and appoint an entrepreneurial catering partner with strong experience of the family market. For further details follow this link.
