Team

Brussels Museums is the independent federation of over 125 Brussels museums. We support, connect, open and promote museums and art centres through numerous initiatives such as Museum Night Fever, the Nocturnes, the Brussels Card, the Art Nouveau Pass, the Brussels Museums website and the Open Museum programme, which works sustainably to create more inclusive spaces.

How we work

The General Assembly, in which each museum holds a voice, establishes every year the list of priority projects. The Administrative Committee makes sure that they are successfully completed. A permanent committee makes sure the projects are concretely achieved.

Brussels Museums is supported by the Brussels-Capital Region, the two community commissions (French and Flemish), the Flemish Community, the French Community, the City of Brussels, the National Bank of Belgium and by its members.
