The Club

Prospective members

Due to exciting new developments with our members' Club, including a brand new Club Room, we will be accepting new joiners from January 2011. In the meantime, if you would like to register interest in joining us as a member next year, please email club@wellcomecollection.org
 

Existing members

As you know, we are currently creating a new, larger, Club Room for members. We are also reviewing membership policies and packages. In appreciation of your membership to date, and in recognition that some unavoidable disruption may take place during the installation of the new Club Room, temporary complimentary membership will be extended, at no cost, for all memberships due for imminent renewal (1 September to 31 December 2010).
 
This renewal will be valid until we are ready to unveil the new room and implement the revised membership offer which is likely to be early in 2011. You will receive a renewal letter in the post shortly before you are due to renew. We will also maintain contact with all members, to provide regular updates about Club developments. In the meantime you can always email us at club@wellcomecollection.org

 

The Club means different things to different people.

For some it's all about access to the Club Room, conceived by renowned designer Ilse Crawford, who sought to capture the spirit of innocent invention, animated by a sense of humour. The result is a room at the heart of Wellcome Collection where you can drink tea, swap ideas, meet kindred spirits, work or just relax. A place where art meets science and where medicine meets anthropology.

For others, the Club is about having an opportunity to mix with interesting people at the monthly Club socials and exhibition private views. You might just like to feel a bit closer to Wellcome Collection. Regardless of motivation, there are plenty of benefits, including:

  • unlimited use of the private Club Room during opening hours
  • regular networking events
  • invitations to private exhibition views for you and a guest
  • special offers and discounts available only to members, including 10 per cent discount at Peyton and Byrne for takeaway food and in Blackwell bookshop.
