The Minories has an extraordinary, and special place in the cultural life of Colchester anchored firmly in the visual heritage of East Anglia, but also a place of experimentation, innovation and invention supporting and developing the economy of artists in the region.

We are planning for an exciting, secure and sustainable future and need to raise funds to begin the transformation process. We would love it if you felt able to make a donation of whatever size to enable us to reopen the Minories and develop its future. 

We are deeply saddened by its current closure. We have been overwhelmed and heartened by messages and offers of support. But now it is time to turn that sentiment into action. Do please donate now! Thank you in advance.
