Friends are vital. Help us to enhance our quality and extend our reach. become a Friend and enjoy the many benefits.
Friends make all the difference
As a Friend, you will promote the interests of the museum, encourage people to visit our exhibitions and ensure we enjoy solid support in the town. Your enthusiasm and engagement are just as important as financial support.
Thanks to the Friends Association
The Association of Friends of Stedelijk Museum Breda has built a valuable collection. A number of items from the collection have been included in our new permanent exhibits The Nassaus of Breda – Castle, Town and Country and Ambition & Longing - Breda in the 19th Century. We are particularly proud to own the oldest view of Breda, which was purchased by the Friends.
Gift from the Friends' Association
Did you know that the Friends' Association of the museum contributed to the restoration of the tower model of the Grote Kerk? Thanks to their financial support, a cheque of no less than €20,000, you will soon be able to enjoy a special element in the new permanent exhibition The Nassaus of Breda - Castle, City, and Land.
