British Museum gets £25m donation

Filed under Attractions

Lord Sainsbury, a Conservative peer, has made a donation of £25 million to the British Museum. It is the biggest single donation to the arts since Sir Paul Getty’s donated £90million to the National Gallery and British Film Institute in 1985.  The money is to be put towards a new “World Conservation and Exhibitions Centre”  - a project which is due to open in 2013.
