Leighton House is owned and run by Kensington and Chelsea Council. Leighton House is one of the four finalists of Art Fund Museum of the Year 2023. The Burrell Collection was presented with the £120,000 prize - the largest museum prize in the world - by the artist Sir Grayson Perry at a ceremony at the British Museum on 12 July. The other finalists were: The MAC (Belfast), Natural History Museum (London) and Scapa Flow Museum (Orkney).
