Why become a member?

Learn something new
Indulge your interest with free access to our regular programme of talks and special briefings on new exhibitions. Normally closed to the public, our team briefings are a unique opportunity to hear directly from the artist or curator as they explain the ideas behind their work before the exhibition opens.

Get closer to the art
We have fascinating store rooms that are full of items not on display. From the costume store to the pottery shelves, the contemporary sculpture to the historic paintings, a behind-the-scenes tour gives a memorable view of museum and gallery which few visitors see.

Be part of a like-minded community
Whether you’re joining us for the opening night of new exhibitions, when the gallery is buzzing with art-lovers, or catching a thought-provoking film in the comfort of the plush auditorium, you’ll be a vital part of what makes our Atkinson family so special. Whenever you visit, we’ll thank you for your loyalty with a warm welcome and a 10% discount at A Great Little Place café and our gift shop and on selected art sales.

Make a difference to other peoples’ lives
Your support enables us reach out to people in our borough who are risk of isolation or less privileged. All income from Membership – and every additional pound you give as a donation – goes directly to The Atkinson Development Trust, who work to welcome the widest possible community, and help us to conserve art for future generations to enjoy.

The Trust is a charity run by volunteers, driven by a love of Sefton and The Atkinson, and a belief in the transformative power of art. Your valued support means we can do more to bring communities together for creative inspiration, enjoyment and improved wellbeing.
