The Open City Big Appeal
Become an Open City Friend and get exclusive access to a year-round programme of events while supporting our work.
All Open City’s work, from staging the annual Open House Festival to running life-changing educational programmes for children and young people, would not be possible without donations from people like you.
As a charity we get some of our funding from private and public sector sponsors but ultimately rely on regular donations to power our work and social impact. That’s why we’re launching our Big Appeal, asking you to sign up as an Open City Friend today by donating £6 or more a month.
Your Perks
By signing up as an Open City Friend, you can access to an amazing programme of exclusive benefits including:
Exclusive booking for special Friends events during the Open House London Festival.
Early ad-free access to Open City’s weekly podcast, The Londown.
An exclusive year-round programme of events and tours just for Open City Friends.
Your Social Impact
As an Open City Friend your donations will help make London more open, accessible and equitable:
Your support will enable life-changing educational programmes for children and young people from under-represented communities.
Your donations will help improve the Open House Festival, allowing tens of thousands of people of all backgrounds access to places and conversations they are normally locked out of.
Your contribution will help open up critical debate on the big issues that shape the urban landscape today by supporting Open City’s year-round programme of free podcasts, films and advocacy.
