Insurance for Museums and Galleries

Museum and Gallery Insurance Tailored to Protect Your Specific Risks.

Today’s museums and galleries are diverse, dynamic centres for art, education and business – relying on revenue from a variety of sources to sustain them. Complete closure or limited access to a museum or gallery or part of its core collection can have a serious impact on income if the right insurance is not in place.

Listed building status, the security of high-value objects, loan exhibitions, crowded storage facilities and the unpredictable risks of fire, flood and damage are some of the conditions that museums and galleries have to consider. Cafés, shops, fund-raising events and corporate functions contribute essential revenue but these commercial activities, within the context of ever-changing regulations surrounding public access, have created new risks.

Castleacre advise museums and galleries on their specific risks and help minimise them – arranging tailored insurance policies that protect all commercial activities, collections, buildings, liabilities and loss of revenue.
