About the Collection

The University Art Collection comprises around 1000 works of painting, drawing, sculpture and graphic art, including many pieces of national and international significance. Based at the former St Andrews Hall, alongside the Museum of English Rural Life and University’s Special Collections, we are part of the University of Reading. We also work with Reading Museum as the Arts Council England-funded Museums Partnership Reading.
