About the Friends of Museum and Art Swindon

About the Friends of Museum and Art Swindon. The Friends of Museum and Art Swindon (FMAS) is a voluntary organisation. It promotes and publicises Swindon Museum and Art Gallery and its activities to as wide a public as possible. It raises funds to buy new items for the museum and encourages sponsorship for the improvement of the collections and facilities.

We’re a registered charity – Charity No. 1050267. We launched in July 1993 with a talk by our patron, the surrealist painter and zoologist, Dr Desmond Morris.

FMAS are dedicated to the development, maintenance and enhancement of the best possible museum and art gallery for Swindon. Something that’s for the benefit of both Swindon residents and visitors from elsewhere. We act as local champions, providing input to management and ensuring formal community involvement in Council decision-making.

If you’re interested in the well-being of  Museum & Art Swindon, we urge you to become a member and help build and improve on its success.
