What to see in our Museums

Ceramics displayed in the Town Hall foyer
Reading Museum & Town Hall has ten museum galleries housing the permanent displays and the John Madejski Art Gallery hosting a lively programme of temporary exhibitions. We also have a cafe and shop. Our Riverside Museum has one permanent exhibition gallery and a second space which is occasionally used for community art exhibitions.
Each gallery has its own page featuring a short description and images. You can use these pages to find out more about what you can expect to see during your visit, and download a plan of the galleries at the bottom of this page.
Our collections are not confined to the galleries. When you visit Reading Museum & Town Hall, look out for a suspended Wendy Ramshaw sculpture and displays of artefacts and ceramics on the walls of the foyer. Objects from the museum collections have been installed throughout our building, where they can be enjoyed by anyone using the spaces for meetings or functions.
For those wanting to explore behind the scenes, we sometimes run tours of the Town Hall building and Museum stores - keep checking our events programme.
