Inspired By My Museum

International Writing Competition

An encounter with a museum can be a life-changing experience, a realisation of the past or an inspiration for the future. If you have a poem, short story or reportage inspired by a museum you have visited, tell us and your words could be selected for publication.

It could be the space, architecture, design, an object or objects in the museum or even the museum/exhibition curator who has inspired you.
