Whether your museum is a private or public organization, our museum insurance program is specially designed to support nonprofit 501(c)3 museums, historic homes, art organizations, libraries, and cultural centers.
We know the museum insurance business which means we understand that your policy needs to include museum specific coverages as needed. For instance, we can provide all-risk coverage for your collection and changing exhibitions, including protection for temporary and long-term loans including transit both to and from the museum. This includes property of a fine art nature and other bona fide works of rarity, historical value, or artistic merit.
We currently insure many types of museums and collections including:
- Agriculture
- Arboretums
- Automotive
- Aviation
- Botanical gardens
- Children’s
- Conservatory

Too often museums think that insurance protection begins and ends with their valuable collections. In reality, you may need specialized protection that covers employees and volunteers, special events, vehicles, buildings and grounds, domestic and international transits, and much more.
In a museum, you know that stuff happens: A pipe freezes and floods your office. A volunteer trips on a mat. Bad guys steal your computer, or worse, steal something from a collection. But with our broad and comprehensive lines of property and liability insurance, we can cover you for all that plus events you never thought possible.
Keeping you protected.
