The Friends





















THE FRIENDS

 

The Friends of The Johnston Collection are part of a social network of people who support the world of visual art and design and play an important role in the life of The Johnston Collection since they were first established in 1999.

The Friends support the museum in practical ways – raising funds for new acquisitions for both the Collection and the Reference Library, for conservation projects in Fairhall, for museum equipment, and for support of TJC’s programs, including exhibitions and lectures.

As well as supporting The Johnston Collection, The Friends receive a range of benefits including invitations to exclusive events and activities, previews of exhibitions, discounts on purchases in the Shop – and much more.
