Support us

Sheffield Museums celebrates the things we have in common, the history we share and the experiences that make all our lives unique. The role of art, culture and heritage has become more important than ever; for many it is a lens through which to see and experience beauty in the world around us, and a rich source of learning, inspiration, and hope.

As a charity, your generous donations, the support from Trusts and Foundations, Sheffield Museums Friends and the income generated through our shops, cafés, events and hospitality, helps to keep the museums and galleries you love free and open for everyone to enjoy.

In 2019-20, we welcomed over 1.1m visitors, and 25,000 people who took part in learning activities, from Dementia Cafés and Toddler Takeovers to Halloween Trails, Cellar Tours and garden restorations.  We worked with over 25,000 school children from across the city and engaged with national programmes such as the V&A’s DesignLab Nation. Without your support all this and much more would not be possible.
