Patrons Circle
A vibrant network of people who are passionate about supporting the arts
As a charity, the support we receive from our generous donors enables us to do more – it is the difference between a purely commercial programme and being able to invest into new artistic commissions, support emerging and established artists, develop innovative and participatory work and subsidise music lessons, concerts and tours.
Our patrons are a passionate group of individuals who come together in support of the arts and to meet in a social setting. In return they receive a range of benefits including priority booking, behind-the-scenes access and special events.
'There is a real sense of purpose to be supporting a cultural institution such as Brighton Dome & Brighton Festival. It’s also remarkably good fun!'Donald Reid
