The Scottish Museums Council has been rebranded as Museums Galleries Scotland from today.
Museums Galleries Scotland is the lead body for the funding,
development and advocacy of over 340 museums and galleries in
Scotland.
Joanne Orr, chief executive of Museums Galleries Scotland, said: "We
felt this was the opportune moment for us to strengthen our identity
and it has certainly been well-timed in light of the changes currently
taking place in the Scottish cultural landscape.
"Strengthening the membership brand in this way will provide an
enhanced platform for us to highlight Scotland’s museums and galleries
and the invaluable collections they care for. It will ensure that we
have a stronger voice for the sector."
Museums Galleries Scotland manages the Recognition Scheme which helps
to make sure that collections of national significance to Scotland are
identified, cared for, protected and promoted to a wider audience.
It also provides advice and support to museums and galleries on areas
such as collection care, learning and access, ICT and workforce
development, and distributes grants to museums and galleries.
