ROM Members

Now in its eighth year, the Young Patrons’ Circle (YPC) is a dynamic group of visionary young professionals poised to become Canada’s next generation of philanthropists. Our Patrons have a passion for discovering natural history, science and world cultures while supporting the preservation of the Museum’s collections, acquisitions with a philanthropic gift.

Through unique social, educational, cultural and networking opportunities for museum enthusiasts aged 19-45, YPC provides exclusive access to ROM exhibitions, galleries, curators, vaults, and private collections in the Toronto area.

In addition, Patrons support ROM Research with the YPC Research Fund. A portion of every YPC gift goes to the Fund, which supports a specific curatorial project chosen by peer-review each year.
