Welcome to the Surrey Museums Consultative Committee (SMCC)

There are over forty museums in Surrey run by district and borough councils, by the Ministry of Defence, by universities and by independent groups. All museums, and all museum visitors, are served by Surrey Museums Consultative Committee, a partnership between the County, District and Borough councils.
