The National Portrait Gallery flourishes because of philanthropy. We are indebted to the generous individuals, foundations and corporations who have helped thus far. There are a number of ways that you can assist the Gallery:
In 1998, acclaimed artist Tracey Moffatt gifted her portrait Some Lads #1 (Russell Page) to the National Portrait Gallery. In 2024 we had the extraordinary opportunity to acquire the full body of work, adding Some Lads #2, Some Lads #3, Some Lads #4 and Some Lads #5 to the collection.
Your donation can be directed towards the collection, education and learning programs, exhibitions, publications and online programs.
Gifting a portrait ensures it becomes part of the National Portrait Gallery Collection, remaining a gift to the nation for eternity.
Join the inner circle of this vibrant, creative institution and help with the acquisition of new portraits.
Leaving a gift in your Will to the National Portrait Gallery is a thoughtful way to ensure an ongoing legacy for the benefit of future generations.
