Your Christmas gift will help keep art free for everyone

This Christmas, your generosity will help keep Firstsite free to enter, support creative activities for families and provide warm, nutritious meals through our Holiday Fun programme.

Thanks to supporters like you, since opening our building in 2011, we’ve welcomed over 1.7 million visitors, served more than 34,000 free hot meals and hosted thousands of activities for local families.

Your gift helps ensure that everyone, whatever their circumstances, can experience art, connect with others and feel they belong.

Thank you for helping keep art free for everyone this Christmas.
