The Art Fund is an independent charity committed to saving art for everyone to enjoy.

Thanks to our 80,000 members we’ve saved morethan 860,000 works of art for museums and galleriessince 1903, including masterpieces such as Raphael’sMadonna of the Pinks, Canova’s Three Graces andPicasso’s Weeping Woman.

We campaign for public access to art, and in 2001 weled the successful campaign to reinstate free entry tonational museums and galleries. We also promote theenjoyment of art through our membership scheme.

In recent years we’ve given some of the largest grants in our history, such as £2.25 million towards the purchase of Dumfries House and £1 milliontowards Titian’s Diana and Actaeon for the NationalGallery in London and the National Gallery ofScotland. The Art Fund has also supported the growth of modern and contemporary art in museumcollections by supporting the acquisition (by Tate and the National Gallery of Scotland) of ARTISTROOMS, Anthony D’Offay’s collection of modern and contemporary art and the Gormley sculptureFilter for Manchester Art Gallery.

The Art Fund receives no funding from thegovernment or Lottery, so we depend on art-loverslike you to enrich the UK’s art collections for futuregenerations to enjoy.
