We advocate for museums

To strengthen the museum sector

We use our independent voice to stand up and fight for museums’ needs, campaigning publicly and behind the scenes on the issues that matter.

To support museum professionals

We commission research into key areas of concern within the museum sector, to offer insight and practical advice for museum professionals.

To champion the role museums play

We believe that everyone benefits from access to art. We are always looking at new ways to help museums connect with their communities and inspire the next generation.
