Art Fund supports the vital work of museums and galleries across the UK.
We give grants to help museums acquire and share works of art, support the professional development of curators, and inspire and engage new audiences.
Current government measures to control Covid-19 mean that museums and galleries across the UK are temporarily closed. We will continue to support all museums. We will be open and here for all our partners throughout, and we welcome conversations. We understand the challenges everyone is facing so we’ll also be flexible about funded project plans and timings needing to change.
Please explore the full programme of funding and digital support below, and find more information in our latest update.
