Welcome to RCMG
The Research Centre for Museums and Galleries (RCMG) researches into the social role, impact and agency of museums and galleries, focusing on themes of disability, representation, education and learning.
We work closely with cultural organisations to reflect on, report on, and ultimately improve practice. Our vision is to make museums inclusive, challenge prejudice, inspire learning and be relevant in contemporary society.
All RCMG research reports and publications are available to download for free, either from Projects or Publications.
RCMG was established in 1999 in response to the growing need for research and evaluation within the museum sector, in particular around the relationship between museums, galleries and their audiences. We undertake commissioned research and evaluations, and we have our own independent research agenda. These complement, reinforce and enhance each other.
