Art Museum Award 2024
The Art Museum Award is dedicated to museum projects which focus on art in an innovative, pioneering, and creative way, addressing current social issues. It is an annual event.
The European Museum Academy fosters the exchange of ideas and experiences between museum professionals across borders.
The EMA Awards fulfil a signal function. They say: “Look at these museums. See what they realised and learn from their experiences. Because, what they achieved may help you too.”
We show the innovators, the frontrunners, the museums that are worth visiting, the projects and exhibitions that inspire.
Each year, the European Museum Academy acknowledges individuals and organisations that excel in presenting, contextualising, and interpreting art and cultural heritage. Our annual award ceremony puts them on stage.

The DASA Award puts the spotlight on educational programs and exhibitions in museums. It ranges beyond programs itself and takes learning opportunities in the broad sense of the word.
The Luigi Micheletti Award wants to identify remarkable, unique, extraordinary permanent exhibitions, with a focus on the way how content is translated into a narrative, it is, in short, history-telling.
