150-page anniversary album + 150 facts
150-page anniversary album + 150 facts
In June this year, the V&A celebrates the 150th anniversary of its opening in South Kensington. As the world's leading museum of art and design, the V&A promotes knowledge, understanding and enjoyment of the designed world, and it inspires creativity.
To reflect this and to mark the occasion, we have invited 150 leading designers, architects, photographers, fashion designers and artists to contribute a page to an anniversary album. As you will see, each page conveys in words and images what they find most inspiring about the V&A and its collections.
We've also pulled together 150 facts about the V&A that give a glimpse of the history, personality and scale of the museum. We hope you enjoy reading them.
Support the next 150 years of the V&A by visiting V&A Prints where selected prints are available to puchase. The V&A would like to thank all who have kindly agreed for their work to be printed and help fund the work of the V&A for future generations.
