Join us for a fascinating talk by David Bickle, the V&A’s Design Director, on V&A East – a new 18,000sqm museum for the 'digital age’ that is being built in east London.

David will discuss this incredible project's ambition to create a new model for how cultural and educational organisations can work in the future, including why museums need to respond to external factors, such as social media and world events, while also becoming more visitor focused.
