Friends of The Holburne Museum

Join as a Friend today and play your part in supporting the Holburne and our work. As an independent museum, we receive no regular public funding and are entirely dependent on ticket sales, memberships and donations to keep our doors open and deliver world-class exhibitions year-round.

Friends of the Holburne enjoy:

• Unlimited free admission all year
• Seasonal newsletters, offering insights into our exhibitions and events programme
• Members-only preview days for select exhibitions
• A closer relationship with the Museum, supporting visual arts in the heart of Bath

Friends Memberships are available to buy online via our ticketing portal:

We also facilitate membership payments in person and over the phone. Please give our Visitor Services Team a call at 01225 388567 and we’ll be delighted to arrange this for you.

Gift Membership Vouchers are available for both Individual and Joint schemes.
Please note that the voucher will be sent to the recipient’s email immediately at the point of purchase. Should you wish to choose when the recipient receives their voucher, we recommend entering your own email and forwarding it at your preferred time.

If you have any queries, concerns or feedback regarding our membership schemes, please email us at friends@holburne.org and we’ll be delighted to assist.
