The award underscores the museum’s success in delivering immersive cultural exhibits and family-friendly content. Operated by Dubai Culture and Arts Authority, the institution is celebrated for its extensive display of heritage, 22 dedicated pavilions within over 80 traditional houses, and storytelling that traces Dubai’s development from the mid-19th century through to the 1970s.
Abdullah Al Obaidli, Director of Al Shindagha Museum, described the space as one that fosters education, discovery and engagement. He noted that artefacts contributed by more than 100 members of the community enrich the museum’s storytelling paths, helping to bring the emirate’s heritage to life.
