The De Morgan Centre is now closed to the public.

This is to prepare for the relocation of the collection to a new site, as yet to be confirmed.

Our current lease expires in January 2010, therefore closure in July 09, will allow for essential conservation work to take place on both the paintings and ceramics prior to moving and to prepare for an exciting opportunity to tour highlights of the collection.

The majority of the collection will still be available to view until mid-Autumn for group visits and research purposes by appointment only, please contact the curator for availability.

Please visit their website for further updates on our relocation as well as information on the collection, tour dates and locations.
