The Museum Council's award ceremony will be held in the Picture Gallery of the National Museum of Iceland on Friday, February 14, from 4:00 PM to 5:00 PM. Logi Einarsson, Minister of Culture, will award grants from the main allocation of the Museum Fund at a ceremonial ceremony. The award ceremony is a direct continuation of the annual meeting of the National Museums and the Museum Council, which begins earlier, at 2:00 PM to 4:00 PM, at the National Museum of Iceland.
At a meeting of the Museum Council last December, the Council approved a proposal for the main allocation from the Museum Fund 2025, which was sent to the Minister of Culture for approval. According to Section 7 of Article 22 of the Museum Act, the Minister allocates grants from the Museum Fund after receiving proposals from the Museum Council. The Minister has now decided on the allocation of grants from the fund.
