Friends of Leighton House Museum
Membership Charges: 10.00 pounds per annum
The Friends of Leighton House was founded in 1969 under the Presidency
of Sir John Betjeman, C.B.E, and play an important role in the life
and activities of the House.
Would you like to help with the preservation and
embellishment of an Aesthetic masterpiece? Do you appreciate the
glories of Victorian paintings and sculpture, or perhaps you are
a supporter of contemporary artists? Are you fascinated by the Orient,
or looking for a magnificent venue for receptions or concerts? Would
you enjoy exploring the hidden treasures of some of England’s finest
houses and gardens?
As a Friend of Leighton House, you can experience
all this, and more. Membership entitles Friends to the following
privileges:
- 5% discount on hiring Leighton House for your
own reception or concert
- Invitations to selected private views and parties
- A regular newsletter keeping Friends in touch
with events at Leighton House
- A special programme of events, visits, lectures
and concerts
- For corporate Friends, Leighton House is an enchanting
place to entertain clients
- Above all, membership of the Friends will enhance
your enjoyment of this unrivalled ‘Palace of Art’
Previous projects completed with assistance from
the Friends have included important acquisitions, including Leighton's
Roman Mother (shown above), and the redecoration and refurbishment
of the lavish interiors.
The Friends are always pleased to welcome new members.
So, if you are a historian or student of Victorian art, or have
visited the Museum and are interested in nineteenth century interiors,
or simply like the building and would like to see it prosper, please
fill out a membership form.
