β: This is a Beta release of the Fitzwilliam Museum's potential new website.
We want to co-design
our Virtual Museum presence with you.
You can return to our current site at any time.
Following the Government announcement yesterday, museums and galleries in Cambridge will be closed to the public as part of a period of national/local restrictions. So, with great sadness, we will not be able to reopen as planned on 2 January 2021.
Duncan Robinson, who has been Director of the Fitzwilliam Museum since 1995, will retire at the end of August. Mr Robinson will be succeeded by Dr Timothy Potts who is currently the Director of the Kimbell Art Museum in Fort Worth, Texas. Dr Potts will take up his new post on 1 January 2008 and Duncan Robinson has kindly agreed to remain in post as Director until then.
