Showcase Grant: Adam Study Centre at Sir John Soane's Museum
In 2001 The Pilgrim Trust gave a grant of £50,000 to the Sir John Soane's Museum to be used towards the creation of an Adam Study Centre. The recently completed Centre was created to house some 9,000 architectural and design drawings by Robert Adam. Along with other artefacts, it has been fitted with specially crafted black American walnut cabinets made to house the 57 albums of architectural drawings by Robert and James Adam. It is hoped that the Centre will provide a suitable setting for scholars, researchers, students, collectors and enthusiasts to research Sir John Soane's collections.
