The Jewish Museum London is planning a phased reopening with support from the government’s coronavirus arts rescue fund. 

Shut for nearly seven months, the museum is to receive more than £249,000 from the government’s £1.57 billion cultural recovery fund to help it weather the effects of the pandemic.

The museum in Camden Town, which has hosted various virtual events since the start of the lockdown, said the fund will support its partial reopening. 

The museum said it will reopen its doors this month to pre-booked private and group visits under a programme called “The Museum to Myself.”
