Arts Council England (ACE) and its UK Accreditation partners, the Welsh Government, Museums Galleries Scotland and Northern Ireland Museums, recognise that many museums are closing their sites due to the impact of Covid-19 and in response to Government advice.In order to support the sector during these unprecedented times all Accredited museums in the UK will have their current award status extended for an additional 12 months
All future Accreditation Panel meetings are postponed, including the upcoming meeting scheduled for 28 April 2020.ACE published a series of FAQs detailing what this means for Accredited Museums, as well as those Working Towards Accreditation or hoping to put in a new application.Download the FAQs here or visit the website.
