Congrats to the museum 🎉

Located in the heart of Pollok Park, the museum was recognised at the annual Art Fund awards on Thursday. It closed in 2016 for a six-year refurbishment and was officially reopened King Charles in October 2022.

The re-imagined display includes more than 100 pieces of digital interpretation, from immersive experiences to interactive games, created to provide context to the collection. Since reopening its doors, it has welcomed more than 500,000 visitors, rejuvenating Glasgow in the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and contributing £20 million to the city's economy.
