Hi Charlotte,
My absolute favourite example from the sector at the moment is www.newmuseum.org - a fast, simple, tailored experience that gets away from the hefty load speeds and superfluous information that a lot of responsive designed sites suffer from. www.walkerart.org is definitely worth checking out too.
Outside the sector, take a look at www.barackobama.com for how they prioritise calls to action and order content, particularly at the top of the site. It loses its way a bit the deeper you go.
Two of the sites I look at most do mobile really well: www.smashingmagazine.com for readability and dealing with *tons* of information; www.redditedit.com for keeping it super simple.
Google's best practice guidelines are nice + practical reminders of what makes an effective mobile site:

Subject: What make a well designed mobile experience?
Hi all,
Iım looking for inspiration!
Can you recommend any really well designed mobile friendly websites and or apps which you think work brilliantly?
They donıt have to be museum specific anything youıve used which you think is really well tailored to mobile interaction will do.
Thanks in advance
Best
Charlotte
