Renaissance Heritage Awards

The Renaissance Heritage Awards are a series of awards for all museums, including independent and local authority museums, heritage societies and linked local groups. 

The awards run in each East Midlands county and celebrate excellence in museums and heritage with categories including best event, best exhibition, inspiration award for best special project and museum of the year.

All the awards are judged by key county representatives who visit the shortlisted museums and are presented at county awards ceremonies where the winners receive a plaque and cash prize as well as significant promotion regionally and nationally through Renaissance East Midlands and local media. 

The 2008 Heritage Awards are already being launched in Lincolnshire and Nottinghamshire. For more information and application forms use the links below:
