How your donation will support our charity
We depend on donations to fund our core activities like running this website, digitising more artworks and telling stories about art. We don’t have any paywalls and want to keep it that way.
‘It is so incredibly important for these artworks to be digitised. This means they can reach a wider audience for enjoyment, learning and research.‘
Art across museums
We share our platform across nearly 3,500 UK museums and other institutions to make their art collections accessible and encourage visits. Most of their art is digitally accessible only through Art UK.
Art in the classroom
We support the teaching of art and art history through our learning resources, with a focus on improving children’s visual literacy. We want all children to have the opportunity to engage with art.
Art for everyone
We democratise access to art. 90% of the UK national collection is not on display. We make it easy to access and understand. And share it with a global audience.
