Supporting as an individual

Turner Contemporary is a remarkable gallery that opened in 2011 to celebrate JMW Turner’s unique connection to Margate.

As a registered charity (number: 1129974) we rely on donations and the support of many individuals. With the generosity of our supporters, we can :

• give free access to world-class art to all of our visitors – nearly 4 million to date
• create a welcoming space within our community and for people who have never visited an art gallery before – more than 50,000 in the last year
• engage adults, children and young people through learning programmes – over 100,000 people to date
• drive regeneration and contribute to the local economy – over over £75 million since 2011

Join in supporting us today and help create incredible cultural experiences.

Our Patrons helped to establish the gallery and today help to sustain our work.

With the support of this committed group, Turner Contemporary can continue a remarkable gallery and endure as a driver of regeneration and a cultural leader in the UK.

As a Patron of Turner Contemporary, you will receive dedicated newsletters keeping you up to date with our work, invitations to VIP events such as curator-led tours and visits to private collections or artist studios, as well as opportunities to meet artists and curators.
