Friends of Glasgow Museums (FoGM) supports Glasgow Museums and fosters interest in the arts in Glasgow.
Friends of Glasgow Museums has been in existence for over 60 years. We contribute many thousands of pounds each year to Glasgow Museums to buy and/or restore works of art, and to support events and publications.
Being a member of the Friends is a wonderfully satisfying activity. We have the enjoyment of being involved with like-minded people. We keep up to date with events in the world of museums and contribute in a positive way through our excursions, trips and lecture series.
Members get to take part in our excursions and lectures, and also receive a ten per cent discount in all of Glasgow Museums’ shops. They also get regular information about museum events and activities.
Aims
FoGM supports Glasgow Museums and fosters interest in the arts in Glasgow as well as contributes towards the purchase and conservation of objects within Glasgow Museums’ collections, as well as some publications.
Guiding Services
FoGM also organises guiding services at Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum, Burrell Collection, and the Gallery of Modern Art (GoMA).
