To mark the 80th anniversary of the Battle of Britain, the RAF Museum is making a selection of our Second World War art collections available to borrow for display.<\/p>\n
The aim of this programme is to make works of art from our national collection more publicly accessible, to enable greater exploration of Battle of Britain stories within the national context of the 80th anniversary, and to build stronger relationships between national and regional organisations to support knowledge exchange.<\/p>\n
Lenders will be able to borrow individual works or request a selection from the list, to be displayed in any appropriate form of temporary exhibition or single object showcase.<\/p>\n
The RAF Museum will provide curatorial information about the works, the Battle of Britain 80th anniversary logo\/brand pack and will promote the loans to the public as part of a nationwide campaign to mark the anniversary.<\/p>\n
Works will be available to borrow from 1 March \u2013 31 October 2020. The programme is open to Expressions of Interest from any accredited regional museum or gallery (or organisations working towards accreditation).<\/p>\n
Successful lenders will be asked to share information about the RAF Museum with the displayed loan(s), and to share information about your organisation and Battle of Britain programme with us so we can promote your activities.<\/p>\n
Transportation, courier support and nail to nail insurance costs must be met by the lender. The RAF Museum will endeavour to keep these costs as low as possible and will not recharge our internal administration costs.<\/p>\n
Detailed condition reports, high resolution images and further details about the works can be provided upon request.
