Explore and learn using the stories held within the University of Reading Art Collection, the artists who have created works over the centuries and the techniques developed to produce new pieces.

Our dynamic Art Study Room welcomes groups and individuals throughout the year. You are free to visit independently or take part in a range of learning activities.

To avoid disappointment we recommend booking as far ahead as you can. Advance booking is essential for all. To make a booking enquiry, please email artcollection@reading.ac.uk.
