Famous faces take their best mate, their mum, their neighbour (whoever they want) for an afternoon at a favourite museum or gallery. As well as getting a peek behind the scenes, seeing what makes a museum tick, it's also the starting point for some great conversations about life, the universe and everything. As well as a chance to eat lots of cake in the cafe.Meet Me at the Museum is published by Art Fund, the UK’s national charity for art, which raises money for museums and galleries through the National Art Pass – a neat little card that gets you free or reduced-price entry to hundreds of great cultural venues and exhibitions around the country. The podcast is produced by Whistledown. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

episode 4: Poppy Jay at the V&A, London
Podcaster and director Poppy Jay is joined by her friend Martin at the V&A in London, where they indulge their love of sharing art and culture together among the museum’s vast collection. Pieces of design such as the Refugee Nation flag spark conversations about identity, migration and empire, while other works of art such as Tippoo’s Tiger – one of the museum’s most famous objects – prompt thoughts about protest and dissent.
