Museums & Galleries Exhibition Tax Relief: ‘How To’ Webinar

Join the Arts Council and RSM for a guide to the Museums and Galleries Exhibition Tax Relief (MGETR).

MGETR is the eighth in a series of creative reliefs introduced by government. It is designed to support organisations to create, and tour public facing exhibitions by helping them to recover some of their production costs.

You will find out:

The session will also cover the Arts Council’s step-by-step guide to developing a claim for the Museums and Galleries Exhibition Tax Relief and FAQs that address many common questions and misconceptions associated with the tax relief.

There is a two-year deadline to make a claim from the end of your financial year, therefore many organisations will need to submit claims before 31 March 2023, so join a webinar to find out how you can start to claim money back on your exhibition production costs.

All Inclusive: Championing Accessible Museums

​​​​​​​All Inclusive on Wednesday 26 April is the Museums Association’s annual one day conference exploring how museums can become truly inclusive spaces and representational platforms, and champion equality at every level.

Disabled people are under-represented in the museum workforce, on boards and in our audiences, and the lives, contributions and perspectives of disabled people are still under-represented in our collections and exhibitions.

This event elevates the perspectives of D/deaf, disabled and neurodivergent people as part of this event.

Through provocations, case studies and panel discussions, this event is for anyone who is working towards diversity and inclusion at a museum or relevant organisation.
