The campaign for
learning through museums and
galleries

is a think tank for
the cultural sector. We exist to encourage fresh thinking and innovation in a sector that can change people’s lives.


    Did you know?

  • There are 2,500 museums and galleries throughout the UK – that’s more than the big four supermarkets put together.
     
  • 100 million visits are made to UK museums every year – more people through the turnstiles than football.
     
  • UK museums look after about 1 billion artefacts on behalf of all of us – that’s 17 things for every single person in the country.
     
  • About 100,000 people work in museums and galleries and they turn over around £1.5bn a year.
     
  • Roughly 40% of the population visit at least once a year – that means museums and galleries touch the lives of around 25 million people between your last birthday and your next.
