Your invitation to join a select club of Design Museum supporters
The Flagpole Club
The Flagpole Club is an exclusive opportunity to help the museum to flag the best of contemporary design and architecture at its new home in Kensington.
Taking its name from the flagpoles which once flew the flags of each Commonwealth nation on Kensington High Street, the Flagpole Club has a maximum membership of just thirty two people.
Heralding the arrival of the new Design Museum on Kensington High Street will be a set of 25 new reeds, which pay a striking tribute to their flagpole predecessors. Members of the Flagpole Club are invited to contribute a one off payment of £15,000 or £1,700 annually by Direct Debit over 10 years to have their name acknowledged on one of these flagpoles for a decade.
Closer to the Museum and guiding visitors towards the landmark building will be a line of 7 prominent landmark reeds, available for a one off contribution of £30,000 or £3,400 annually by direct debit over 10 years.
Flagpole Club Members will receive an invitation to the Flagpole Club dinner, held annually on the first Monday of December and featuring a special guest speaker, the dinner will be held in the Members’ Room at the new Design Museum.
The iconic flagpoles, displaying the flags of the Commonwealth countries, stood prominently on the pavement of Kensington High Street
