The Ruskin School of Art, in collaboration with Modern Art Oxford, is supporting one of 125 projects shortlisted by the nationwide scheme ‘The Big Arts Give’.
Ruskin will match the funds raised by the donations on certain conditions. If £20,000 is raised by 5th November, the scheme will match this amount, provided that an additional £40,000 is raised through online donations in just one week in December.
The money raised will go towards a project on Modern Art Oxford’s archive, called “50 years of Exhibition Making”.
It will fund a doctoral researcher to go through the archives, which contain a wealth of previously unexplored material, providing ideas for future exhibitions and rediscovering highlights from the gallery’s past.
