"Everybody is a winner"
Art Fund helps donors to gift works of art to public collections, either in their lifetime or in their Will. We are very grateful for this generosity, which helps to enrich the UK’s collections for the enjoyment of generations to come.
With our knowledge of UK collections we are able to match works of art with appropriate museums, and we facilitate the gifting of hundreds of works of art each year.
We aim to make this process as simple and secure as possible. We organise the formal agreements between museums and donors, and we can also direct donors towards useful information on tax-efficient ways to give art.
Thinking of gifting a work of art?
We’d love to hear from you. For advice on a potential gift or bequest, please contact Senior Programme Manager Nancy Saul on 020 7225 4888 or nsaul@artfund.org
