The Friends of Leighton House
The Friends of Leighton House is a charitable
organisation established over forty years ago to support and
develop Leighton House Museum and 18 Stafford
Terrace.
The Friends, formed by a Museum’s
enthusiastic group of core supporters, was created in order to
contribute to the preservation and enhancement of both houses, thus
furthering the appreciation of Victorian art and social history and
bringing them to a new generation through exciting events. The
Friends have been able to contribute towards many projects
and appeals for both houses. Funds raised in the past
have contributed towards the purchase of significant paintings and
the early development of the education programmes, among other
projects. Visit the fundraising page for
further information.
