The Friends of Fareham Museum

Our Aims

Originally formed to press for a Museum in Fareham, the Friends are now keen to promote interest in Westbury Manor Museum and its services as the local cultural centre, and to support and assist the Curator in every possible way.

Our Activities

The most important function of the Friends is to act as a liaison group between the people of the Borough and the staff of Hampshire County Council Museums Service, but we are also active in the following ways:-

• Arrangement of a programme of lectures, social events and visits.
• Organisation of enjoyable fund raising ventures.
• Production of a newsletter to keep members informed of museum related activities
• Provision of opportunities for participation in projects from time to time.

The Friends are active members of the British Association of the Friends of Museums, from whom we seek help and advice, and which enables us to keep in touch with national trends, and follow these, where appropriate.

 

If you would like to join us, please contact one of the museum staff.
