Engagement

Leicester has many communities, unique places, and arts and heritage which shape the City’s identity. Our aim is to celebrate these stories and create experiences that showcase our special and unique City.

Leicester Museums & Galleries work to involve local residents and visitors by sharing the City’s history and culture. These are your museums and we want to make sure they are fun, relevant and accessible to everyone.

Involvement in art, heritage and culture has the power to enrich all our lives and exploring objects and exhibitions should be inspiring and enjoyable.
