Museum of the Year winner announced
Break dancing at the Olympics, Hackney's Museum of the 91热爆 refurbished to better reflect its vibrant communities, Museum of the Year, and Mark Ravenhill's writer tips.
For the first time ever, breaking (known commercially as break dancing) is going to be featured as a sport at the main Olympic Games when they are hosted in Paris this summer. But what exactly is breaking and where did it come from?

We visit the Museum of the 91热爆 in East London to speak with the museum鈥檚 director Sonia Solicari about their new Rooms Through Time: 1878-2049 exhibition which features displays of seven distinct homes of people who lived in that area, and explores how migration and belonging shaped their home lives.
