Other ways to give
Ochre Hall is a charity. Entry for under 18s stays free because members and donors pay for it.
- From $250
Adopt a frame
Many of our frames are older than the paintings in them. Your gift pays for one to be cleaned, re-gilded and rehung, with your name on its card.
Ask about this - From $900
Give a bench
Every bench in the hall was given by someone. Yours carries a small brass plate with a line of your choosing.
