Doors are officially open at V&A East Museum! 🏛️✨

As a Stratford local, having this world-class cultural hub right on our doorstep is big.

Whether you’re a neighbour or just visiting, you have to check it out.

Long overdue visit to a collection today, not open for general visits, made me think of the recently opened V&A East Storehouse. The range of views on the developments there and international contrasts are fascinating plus people wanting to see 'behind the scenes'.

The V&A’s spectacular new outpost is part museum, part IKEA warehouse, part Generation Game. Tristram Hunt takes me round his Aladdin’s cave and tells me about using forklifts to democratise design #VAEast

Considering what else is there, an ugly stadium, a massive bland shopping centre, this is actual nice #VAEast. #Stratford #London #architecture

The V&A East’s Music Is Black exhibition tells the story of how black music shaped modern Britain. It also raised questions about my generation - how did some of us grow up so differently?
