Get creative at Young V&A in London, where kids (and kids at heart) can imagine, play and design together.
Following a three-year transformation co-designed with children and young people, who requested they make 'the world's most joyful museum', Young V&A celebrates the pivotal role of design and creativity on children's lives. Described as a 'doing' museum, its spaces allow kids to build new skills and foster creative confidence in a playful environment.
Interactive activities for fun days out
Visitors will experience interactive spaces and activities, including sensory playscapes, a finger skateboard park, an 'Imagination Playground' construction zone, a performance and story-telling stage, and an open design studio.
Explore 2,000 objects from the collection
Three permanent galleries - Imagine, Play and Design - showcase the 2,000 objects from the museum's collection of art, design and performance alongside new commissions by contemporary artists, co-curated projects and live programming.
Family-friendly café
Relax in the spacious café where you can grab some tasty treats or tuck into food from home. Young V&A provide bottle warming facilities, highchairs, and a microwave.
