As the V&A museum prepares to open its newest site in Stratford, east London, a growing controversy has erupted over the institution's pay practices. Campaigners have organized an open letter to the museum's director, demanding that the V&A become a living wage employer and provide a 'fair day's wage' for all its workers.
The V&A East is set to open its doors on Saturday, showcasing a stunning collection of fabrics, photographs, and black British music. This latest addition joins the V&A's existing museums in South Kensington, Bethnal Green, and Dundee, and the institution has described it as one of the most significant new museum projects in the UK.
