The Friends of the Stanley Spencer Gallery was founded in 1962. Its prime aims are:
- to promote interest both nationally and internationally in the work of Sir Stanley Spencer RA, CBE.
- to assist in the running and maintenance of the Stanley Spencer Gallery in Cookham so that Spencer's work can be displayed in the village environment which inspired it
- to provide financial aid towards that Gallery's running costs, and to contribute towards the acquisition costs of further works of Stanley Spencer.
Membership
of the Friends brings free admission to the Cookham Gallery during official
opening hours; regular newsletters with events at the Gallery and exhibitions
of Spencer’s work elsewhere; invitations to private views and other
special events at the Gallery. Members are also invited to join organised
outings to art exhibitions and places of artistic or architectural interest
at group rates.
