Renaissance East of England

Renaissance East of England aims to make the region’s museums great centres of life and learning, closely connected to their communities. It works with hundreds of partners across the region to support museums in providing better services which meet the needs of more people. It promotes excellence through an extensive programme of activity designed to:

  • Raise standards in care of collections and curatorial knowledge
  • Ensure that collections are relevant and accessible to the communities they serve
  • Provide extensive opportunities for learning of all kinds, through events, schools programmes, exhibitions and outreach activities.
