Friends of Wakefield Art Galleries and Museums

Are you interested in enjoying and supporting the arts?

Would you like to know more about the Friends of Wakefield Art Galleries and Museums?  If so, please read on...

Our main objectives are:

  • Extending enjoyment and appreciation of the visual arts, history and archaeology
  • Supporting the acquisition of works of art.

Benefits of becoming a “Friend” include:

  • Invitations to private “preview” exhibitions in the Wakefield District
  • Talks by artists
  • Social events
  • Visits to other galleries and private collections

Join Now!  There cannot be a more exciting time to join the Friends.  Funding has been secured for the building of a new “Hepworth Gallery” on Wakefield’s Waterfront scheduled to open early in 2009.  The Hepworth will undoubtedly become a national and, indeed internationally renowned resource. 

Friends Subscription Fees:
