Renaissance is a Department for Culture Media and Sport (DCMS) funded programme with the aim of transforming England’s regional museums, making them world class and fit for the 21st Century. 

This website provides information for museums and museum staff and volunteers about how Renaissance can help them with information on funding, training and staff support to attract more visitors, work more effectively with schools, community groups and lifelong learning, make the most of their collections and invest in their staff.
