Apply for the EMA awards, don’t miss the chance to profit from the visibility and networking opportunities offered to your museum by taking part in the European Museum Academy Awards: Micheletti Award, the DASA Award and the Art Museum Award.

For 2023 the emphasis of the Micheletti Award will be on the way museums manage to convey a sense of the past to their visitors through their exhibitions by means of a compelling narrative. It is anticipated that many different kinds of museums will compete for this chance to show how their storytelling provides the public with a better sense of their own identity and their place in the historical landscape.

After more than 10 years of the DASA Award the emphasis is placed even more firmly on the learning opportunities offered by museums.

The Art Museum Award is dedicated to honour and highlight museum projects that work with art in an innovative, pioneering and creative way in order to address or respond to current social issues that are a major challenge to our contemporary society. It is about museums functioning as ‘social arenas’, as socially relevant meeting places. 

Candidates will be visited by EMA qualified experts and presented at the Annual EMA Meeting in September 2023. The closing date for applications is 1 April 2023.
