Art & Heritage Collections
Showcasing and stewarding artworks and artefacts which reflect the history and achievements of RGU.
The University holds a fascinating collection of historical objects and contemporary art which allow staff, students and visitors to explore our University’s past.
Art & Heritage Collections' work prioritises:
- Collecting RGU's history
- Sharing collections through loans, displays and exhibitions
- Stimulating learning and research
- Preserving our past through collections care and conservation
- Engaging our community and the public with visits and events
- Volunteering opportunities
The Art & Heritage Collections are an important record of the creative output of RGU’s students, alumni and educators and of methods of teaching and study in the North East of Scotland.
