Join our Patron Circle
EAF is the UK’s largest annual festival of visual art.
Our Patron Circle is a vibrant and diverse community, where individuals play an integral role in EAF’s continued development and success.
Patrons bring our creative vision and mission to life, supporting the voices of artists and future generations of artists, who inspire change, foster solidarity, and bring people together in meaningful ways.
For 2025, your donation supports the work of over 200 artists from Scotland, the UK, Europe and Latin America who will be showcased in the EAF25 programme. Patrons empower us to provide free and equal access to many of our events, workshops, our artistic and civic programmes year-round, allowing us to continue to foster a thriving arts scene in Edinburgh and beyond.
