Patrons

Become a Patron

Our Patrons play a vital role in the success and growth of the Royal Academy of Arts as a dynamic and independent arts institution. Patrons support all of the activities of the Academy, from our world class exhibition programme and historic collection of British art, to the Royal Academy Schools and our public education programme. Patrons can support us at several levels and choose from a number of groups, depending on their particular interests.

Benefits of Support

In return for an annual membership, Patrons enjoy an intimate relationship with the artists, curators and educators of the Royal Academy of Arts and benefit from a bespoke programme of exclusive events and priority access. Some of the many benefits include:

• Unlimited free entry to all Royal Academy of Arts exhibitions
• Invitations to special events, including prestigious opening receptions, behind-the-scenes visits and tours of Royal Academician studios
• Private curator-led tours for each exhibition before it opens to the public
• Opportunity to attend bespoke national and international art tours

There are four Patrons groups:
