Museums and Galleries
Partnerships with many of the country’s leading museums and galleries have enabled RAMM to have an exciting programme of temporary exhibitions. With four newly-refurbished, high-specification exhibition galleries, RAMM can now bring an even wider variety of national touring exhibitions to the South West.
