  • You’ll play an important role in supporting our work.

    The RSA Friends and Benefactors are a vibrant group of supporters who enjoy a wide range of benefits such as special access to our events and exhibitions.

     

    As an independent self-funded charity, we rely on donations to continue our support of Scotland’s creative future.

     

    For over 30 years the RSA Friends has played an important role in raising funds to support the work of the RSA, and our Academicians.
