Museums and Galleries Month London

Another huge event is taking place in May that has proven to be highly popular in the last years. This is a UK-wide celebration of museums and galleries. This year's theme is "People: Who are We?" The events at the galleries and museums will go late into the night during this festival, showing many special art pieces, films and other fun things.

The museums and galleries festival runs from 1st May until the 31st of May so you have enough time to visit many of London's best museums and galleries.

Many events that one would not expect at a museum or gallery are also taking place such as "Surreal Things" at V and A, "Picasso" at Museum of Childhood or "Science of Spying" at Science Museum.

Kids will be delighted with the many workshops offered at different museums. The
Design Museum for example lets kids design their own rooftop retreat. Something you probably cannot do all too often.
