The Friends of Plymouth City Museum and Art Gallery is a registered charity which supports the work of Plymouth Museums, Galleries, Archives (including The Box) and helps acquire objects for public display. We have been doing this since 1951. We raise money through membership fees, donations, talks & coffee mornings, trips out and special events held throughout the year. All of this to support the heritage and culture of Plymouth, the city that we love so well. Administrative costs are kept to a minimum, as the charity is run by a committee of part time volunteers operating from their own homes. Donations and subscriptions are therefore predominantly used for the purpose for which they are intended.
However, the Box will running their own membership soon and the committee has therefore decided not to compete with this and close the Friends membership. If you are a member of the Friends then please cancel any standing order for subscriptions immediately!
