According to BBC, V&A Director Tristram Hunt said: “The V&A believes in the transformative power of creativity, and it’s critical we work to support and develop the Next creative generation.
“The optimistic and transformative power of creativity radiates through Young V&A and we cannot wait to unleash it upon our teenagers to toddlers.”

Visitors may be required to buy tickets for the temporary exhibitions.
Open daily between 10am and 17.45pm, the museum is just a couple of minutes’ walk away from Bethnal Green underground station.
