Leighton House shortlisted for Art Fund Museum of the Year 2023

We are thrilled to share that Leighton House has been selected as one of five finalists for Art Fund Museum of the Year 2023, the world’s largest museum prize!

Leighton House has been recognised for the transformational Hidden Gem to National Treasure redevelopment, including ongoing research to recover Leighton's lost collections, and inspiring collaborations with international artists, makers and creatives celebrating cultural interaction.

We are in amazing company with four other shortlisted museums; The Burrell Collection (Glasgow); The MAC (Belfast); Natural History Museum (London); Scapa Flow Museum (Orkney).

The winner will be announced at a ceremony at the British Museum on 12 July, with the winning museum awarded £120,000 and £15,000 for each of the four other finalists.
