Our events programme includes four events exclusively for members throughout the membership year. Examples of events that may be offered are private view evenings and behind-the-scenes tours plus advanced notice of upcoming lectures and talks. Family membership gives access to a separate programme of events designed for families, including curator-led tours of local wildlife or museum events just for our family members.
A talk from a curator in the Lady Lever
Our inaugaural membership event was held in mid July at the Lady Lever Art Gallery, to celebrate the opening of the new gallery, Lever the Collector and the Masterpiece Watercolours and Drawings exhibition. Members enjoyed the unique opportunity to have personal tours and were "delighted with the interesting and spirited guidance talks" from members of staff. Look out for our next event, for our Family Membership, in late August.
