City museum in award hunt

A MUSEUM has been short-listed for a national award for its family friendly environment.

The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery, in Hanley, has been short-listed for the Guardian Family Friendly Museum Award 2011.

This national award is supported by Kids in Museums, a charity that actively encourages museums to become more family friendly and is one of the biggest in the sector.

The Potteries Museum and Art Gallery is among six museums that have made it through to the third stage of the award after first being nominated by the public for their family friendliness.

The winner of the award will now be judged in April by anonymous families who will visit over the coming months. These families will decide on a winner, using the Kids in Museums Manifesto as a guide.
