CORPORATE FRIENDS
The Corporate Friends programme offers your organisation a wonderful opportunity to form a relationship with the Royal Watercolour Society that could enrich the lives of your employees and clients while providing funds to develop our art education programme, particularly where it benefits local schools.
DONATIONS
The Royal Watercolour Society welcomes donations from individuals and organisations that will help preserve the Diploma Collection. The Royal Watercolour Society regularly exhibit historical works of art on paper requiring strict environmental controls. Their archive, one of the oldest art archives in the world, also require a temperate environment.
Donors will be publicly acknowledged for their support of the RWS in the Gallery and elsewhere.
LEGACIES
Individuals may also wish to consider including the Royal Watercolour Society in their will. If you would like to support us but have other priorities at the moment, a charitable bequest allows you to make a lasting contribution without immediate financial outlay. Legacies of any amount are most welcome - no gift is too large or too small. Your gift will make a difference to our present and our future.
