V&A East Museum opened to the public on Saturday 18 April as part of East Bank, the new cultural district in Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park.

Developed with input from young people, local creatives, and residents, workers, and students in East London, the museum highlights the transformative power of making and creativity to inspire change globally.

Set within a bright, spacious five-storey building designed by architects O’Donnell + Tuomey, it is a showcase of creativity and a celebration of makers from East London, the UK, and beyond.
