Art Fund Museum of the Year is the world’s biggest museum prize

Art Fund has supported Museum of the Year since 2008. Over the years there have been many outstanding winners and finalists.

The prize champions what museums do, encourages more people to visit, and gets to the heart of what makes a truly memorable museum.

The judges present the prize to the museum that has shown how their achievements of the preceding year stand out, what makes their work innovative, and the impact it has had on audiences.
