Why join?
Membership of the Friends gives you the opportunity to explore the rich and diverse
collections of Brighton's fascinating museums and historic houses.
Marvel at the exotic Regency splendour of the Royal Pavilion; step back in time
to Edwardian days at Preston Manor. Discover dinosaur bones, butterflies, British
birds and much more at the Booth Museum of Natural History. Enjoy the exciting
new galleries created as part of the £10 million redevelopment of Brighton
Museum & Art Gallery.
As a Friend, you can also get involved with the day-to-day work of the museums,
from staffing the Friends' publicity desk at special events to accompanying outings
and assisting at seminars. Friends also benefit from exclusive access to the Link
Room in Brighton Museum, where you can meet other Friends and enjoy light refreshments
in a welcoming and relaxed environment.
Friends' subscriptions and donations provide important finance to support
the work of the museums, in mounting exhibitions, purchasing new exhibits and
conserving existing artefacts. Financial support from the Friends has helped to
make possible the exciting redevelopment at Brighton Museum & Art Gallery

Unlimited free entry to the Royal Pavilion and Preston Manor.
