On November 28, 2017, Catherine, Duchess of Cambridge visited the Foundling Museum to learn about how the Museum aims to give young people new skills, an understanding of history, and a space in which their voices are heard. The Foundling Museum explores the history of the Foundling Hospital, the UK’s first children’s charity and first public art gallery. The Foundling Hospital was founded in 1739. It was a children's home established for the "education and maintenance of exposed and deserted young children." (The Duchess's wearing Kate Spade today) |
