“The Royal Cornwall Museum has a superb collection and can be described as the guardian of Cornwall’s cultural heritage. …It can rightly call itself a centre of excellence in museum/heritage learning”.   Robin Clutterbuck Sandford Award Judge 2008.

 

The Royal Institution of Cornwall is the charity which owns and manages the Royal Cornwall Museum and Courtney Library. As a charity the RIC relies on the generosity of members, donors and volunteers to govern, support and assist it with maintaining and improving one of the country’s oldest and finest museum and archive collections.

There are a number of ways in which you can support the RIC, from hands-on volunteering to annual membership; from one–off donations to remembering the RIC in your will or using our elegant spaces for corporate hire.
