University of Cambridge Museums

Together, the eight University of Cambridge Museums and Botanic Garden (UCM) represent the UK’s highest concentration of internationally important collections outside London. With more than five million works of art, artefacts, and specimens, the collections have supported nearly 300 years of investigation into the world around us. The UCM consortium works across the collections and with other museums in the region in a range of ways, from programming and inclusion to marketing and research, to maximise our collective impact for our audiences.

Our work is supported by Arts Council England, Research England, Cambridge City Council and Cambridgeshire County Council.
