Berner Kunstfonds


Berner Kunstfonds was founded in 1993 by Verein der Freunde Kunstmuseum Bern, Verein Kunsthalle Bern and the Bernische Kunstgesellschaft in order to jointly intensify and coordinate the relationship with private patrons.

Kunstmuseum Bern and Kunsthalle Bern are dependent on additional financial support from private donors in order to run an attractive art and exhibition program. As a patron, you also contribute to the expansion of the Kunstmuseum's collection.
