How to support the collection
‘New Light has been close to my heart from the very beginning. I would love to see it gain more sponsorship so that it can continue its wonderful work supporting Northern artists and sharing the well-being benefits of art. Please do join me in supporting New Light.’

How you can help us:
Become a Sponsor
New Light Collection – You can help us to enable more organisations to borrow artworks by sponsoring a specific location, essential specialist transportation, expert hanging or insurance whilst the artwork is on the borrowers’ premises. Your support could be for a defined period or even long term. We don’t want to pass on any costs to the borrowers of the collection so your financial help is essential to make our Collection truly accessible for all.
Make a Donation
A monetary donation, no matter how small, would make a big difference. You may decide to make a one off donation, or perhaps a regular one. We are extremely grateful for your support.
Become a Volunteer
If you are interested in helping us in person please do get in touch. Whether you have a few hours to spare, or would like to organise a fundraising activity, we would love to hear from you. Together we can make contemporary art accessible to all.
Become a Trustee
Help us to shape the direction of New Light and enable more people to benefit from direct access to contemporary Northern art. Talk to us about becoming a trustee.
Invest in Northern Art
Visit our biennial Prize Exhibition, either in person or online, where you can view and purchase high quality artworks,in a range of media and subject. By investing in shortlisted artwork from our Prize Exhibition you can be certain you are supporting some of the most talented Northern artists.
Leave a Legacy
By leaving a donation to New Light in your will, or donating an artwork to the New Light Collection, you’ll be ensuring that Northern contemporary art will continue to be enjoyed, supported and celebrated across the generations into the future.
Borrow the Collection for Your Business
If you would like to borrow artworks for your business and would like to support our community borrowers by donating a hire fee in return – it would be immensely beneficial to our work as we would then be able to reach more areas where funds are simply not available. You would be enabling groups and organisations to have the opportunity to hang contemporary Northern artworks in their own spaces.
There are many ways you can help to support Northern Art and make it available to all. Please get in touch if you’d like to help – we would love to hear from you.
