Hastings Museum & Art Gallery has won a national award for its "social impact".
The museum was one of four winners at the Museums Change Lives Awards 2024.
It won Best Small Museum Project for its collaboration with the Refugee Buddy Project, "Illuminating Invisible Histories: Flavours Without Borders".
This project was aimed at raising awareness of refugee experiences in Hastings.
Steve Miller, president of the Museums Association, said: "I am thrilled to celebrate the achievement of our four winners in Leeds.
"They represent some of the most inspiring work being done in the UK museum sector."
Two dinner parties were held at the museum, where 20 participants shared their stories through food and conversation.
Sharon Heal, director of the Museums Association, said: "The judges of this year’s competition had an incredibly hard task in picking these four winners because so many museums across the UK are doing ambitious and trailblazing work."
