Religion, Collections and Heritage Group

‘Religious’ collections are found in the greatest and smallest galleries and museums, but also (in huge numbers) in archives, places of worship, schools and elsewhere. RCHG was set up in 2021 to raise awareness of them, to promote their care and interpretation, and to link and support the people who look after them.

The Group’s website religioncollections.wordpress.com incorporates a blog and a growing series of resources. The Group is developing a training programme, and exploring a mapping project to reveal where religious collections are to be found.
