Great art is made for sharing.
For more than 200 years, we have remained dedicated to our mission of unlocking art for all. And we do it without any annual government funding.
Our success is thanks to our fantastic family of supporters who share our vision.
Our supporters enable the original gallery to continue being a sanctuary in the city, dedicated to finding new, surprising, and original ways for people to enjoy, appreciate, and be inspired by great art – inside and out.
