The Government has announced up to £1 million in funding for The Jewish Museum London to support outreach, education and plans for a new permanent home. The announcement was made by Culture Secretary Lisa Nandy during a visit to the museum’s interim space at JW3 in north London.
The Jewish Museum London closed its Camden site in 2023 and has since operated as a museum without walls, running exhibitions, learning programmes and community activities. Ministers said the new funding would support audience development, collection loans and work to expand education outreach.
The announcement comes at the end of the UK’s first Jewish Cultural Month and follows wider Government measures on antisemitism. Ministers also said they intend to provide £100,000 for Manchester Jewish Museum to support community work, security costs and a schools outreach pilot.
