Housed in a landmark building, the Holburne Museum is one of the UK’s most respected regional art museums. Established as Bath’s first public art gallery in 1882, with a unique collection of over 9,000 works of fine and applied art, we seek to bring the best art of all periods to Bath through quality exhibitions and an extensive outreach programme delivered by a small, ambitious team. In 2019 we agreed a new Vision to make the Holburne a place that uses art and the Museum’s setting to create an open, welcoming, inspiring and empowering space for everyone. At the heart of this vision is the powerful relationship of art, creativity and social and personal wellbeing, encapsulated by our slogan Changing Lives Through Art. We seek to deliver our Mission with Ambition and Innovation, ensuring that we always do so in ways that are Inclusive, of the highest Quality, Relevant and Sustainable.
