In May 2023, the Sybir Memorial Museum submitted an application to the European Museum of the Year Award 2024 program. This is the most prestigious competition for European museums, which consists of several distinctions.
In December 2023, Białystok received two happy news: first – the Sybir Memorial Museum was among the nominees for EMYA 2024 (European Museum of the Year Award). Second – we received the Council of Europe Museum Award 2024. This is the oldest distinction for a European museum.
The Council of Europe Museum Prize was awarded on April 16, 2024 in Strasbourg.
The EMYA Award is always presented in May during the European Museum Forum. In 2024, the Forum will be held on May 1-4 in Portimao, Portugal.
