    Donors play a vital role supporting the acquisition of artworks for our enormously rich and varied collection – the heart of our Art Gallery.

    We invite you to join our annual giving program. Donors who give more than $10,000 over four years will be recognised as patrons of the Art Gallery of NSW Foundation, and enjoy a close connection to the Art Gallery.
