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.

One of my favorite podcasts!

If you love museums, interesting people talking about interesting and sometimes unlikely things, and good chats, this podcast is for you. A fab way to learn more about the world and add museums to your “to visit” list.

The Great Bed of Ware was the first of this podcast I listened to, and it really made me smile!
