Connecting with us
Birmingham Museums Trust looks after the city’s collections on behalf of the people of Birmingham. We offer many different ways to get involved, from skills development and social connections, to supporting people to visit and telling different stories of the city.
Volunteering
We are lucky to have an amazing team of volunteers supporting us across our sites, and from home. Our volunteers get involved with a range of projects and activities, and we couldn’t do what we do without them. Please see our volunteering page for more details and to see how you can get involved.

Community Welcome Pass Scheme
Our Community Welcome Pass scheme could help you explore the city’s museums for free. The scheme is open to community groups, CICs or small charities based in Birmingham, Solihull or Sandwell who work with groups who face barriers to visiting our museums.

Community Corner
Located at the heart of the Made in Birmingham display in Birmingham Museum & Art Gallery, the Community Corner showcases the people and stories shaping Birmingham today. These changing displays celebrate the city’s communities, giving groups a space to tell their own story.

Dynamic Collections
Our Dynamic Collections programme brings collections and communities together, helping us learn from and work with people of the city to better understand our collections and make them more accessible.

Community Partners
We are proud to host partner organisations at our sites, including Pinc College and Legacy West Midlands.
