Support us

The Sidney Nolan Trust is a registered charity and we rely on the generosity of donors who share our commitment to increasing public access to the arts and music and also to further the appreciation of the work of Sir Sidney Nolan. We are indebted to all our donors for the support they have given us.

There are a number of different ways you can support the Trust, from volunteering to making a regular donation or becoming a Friend of the Trust.

Become a Friend

As a Friend of the Trust your support will go directly towards supporting the:

• Trust’s learning programme which encourages people of all ages to explore their creativity.
• Conservation of Sidney’s works of art held by the Trust and making them accessible through a programme of temporary exhibitions.
• Work in our archive of Sidney’s enormous personal legacy of books, letters, photographs and film as a resource for researchers.
• Upkeep of the beautiful medieval farm, including the Grade II* listed Jacobean manor house, Rodd Court (Sidney’s former home), and its gardens and grounds.

In exchange for an annual contribution of £35 (individual) or £50 (joint) the Trust will show its appreciation by offering:

• Unlimited free entry to its annual exhibition programme, Nolan’s studio, Rodd Court and gardens

• Invitations to exclusive Private View events

• 10% discount on its annual programme of courses/workshops led by established artists.

• 10% discount on tickets for events such as concerts and talks held at The Rodd.
