Become a Patron

Our committed Patrons community plays a vital role in driving forward the Science Museum’s vision to create a more scientifically literate and engaged society.

Their invaluable philanthropic support allows us to capture the imaginations of our 3.2 million visitors a year through stunning new galleries and exhibitions, world class collections and imaginative events such as our ever-popular Lates series.

We value our Patrons, not just as supporters of the museum but as members of our close-knit community. They are invited to get to know our people, collections and exhibitions through an exclusive programme of private views, behind the scenes tours and exciting lectures exploring the biggest topics in science today.

There are three levels of patronage to choose from, with each opening the door to a range of exclusive benefits and unique opportunities:

  • Brunel Circle: £1,000 per year (benefit £400, suggested donation £600)
  • Galileo Circle: £5,000 per year (benefit £1,500, suggested donation £3,500)
  • Newton Circle: £10,000 per year (benefit £2,100, suggested donation £7,900)

The loyalty and generosity of our Patrons help us to place science at the heart of culture in London, the UK and the world. We do hope you will consider joining us.
