Help the Courtauld care for an exceptional art collection, advance scholarship through world-class teaching and research, and ensure every student – regardless of background – has the chance to thrive.
Courtauld Fund Challenge Week
We are incredibly grateful to our global Courtauld community for all the ways you continue to support and inspire us. During 2–8 December 2025, all donations will be matched by a group of extraordinary philanthropists. Our Courtauld Fund Leaders have generously pledged to double each and every donation you make, up to £75,000 – with special thanks to TrinityBridge for their lead gift in support of this campaign. This means your generosity will have twice the impact and, together, we can raise £150,000 to support areas across the Courtauld where it is needed most.
Your kind gift will go towards:
Supporting our exceptional art collection
The Courtauld Gallery is home to one of the UK’s most impressive collections of art, particularly known for Impressionist and Post-Impressionist masterpieces. Notable works include Manet’s A Bar at the Folies-Bergère, Van Gogh’s Self-Portrait with Bandaged Ear and Degas’ Two Dancers on a Stage.
Donate today and preserve important masterpieces for future generations to enjoy.
