The Bowes Museum Collections Fund

Bring Stories to Life

Every Collection Starts with a Story

The Bowes Museum was founded through the extraordinary vision of Joséphine and John Bowes. They believed that art should be accessible to everyone.

Today, we continue their legacy by caring for one of the country’s most remarkable collections.

As the collection continues to grow, new discoveries come to light, acquisition opportunities arise unexpectedly and every generations has new stories to tell.

The Bowes Museum Collections Fund is a dedicated fund which allows us to continue building a collection that inspires curiosity, creativity and learning for everyone. By making a donation to the Collections Fund, you will be supporting the care and stewardship of our collections for future generations.

Every gift makes a difference. Thank you for your support.
