our work with public collections / Museum Members

Do you want to develop your permanent collections with contemporary art?

Are you interested in developing your collection through a gift of a work of contemporary art from the Contemporary Art Society or through our commissioning programmes?

Museum Membership is a subscription scheme and members receive a range of benefits in return for an annual subscription of £1,000 (plus VAT) for our programme of Fine Art acquisitions programme and £350 (plus VAT) for our Craft acquisitions programme. 

We ask for your commitment to the annual membership fee of £1,000 (fine art) or £350 (craft) for up to four years, every four years you will receive a contemporary work for your collection in addition to be considered for gifts and bequests.
