Gift Planning
Currelly Society
When you make a planned gift, such as a bequest, you become a member of the Charles Trick and Ada Mary Currelly Society (Currelly Society). Named for the ROM's first director of Archaeology and his wife, the Currelly Society is the ROM's way to recognize and thank you for your gift.
As a Currelly Society member, you will be invited to an annual behind-the-scenes luncheon and tour and to a series of lectures throughout the year. Currelly Society events provide members with exclusive access to ROM curators and technicians who recount their research or highlight the focus of a new exhibition.
With your permission, your name will be listed as a Currelly Society member in the ROM's annual report and in the Museum Builders Exhibit, located in Samuel Hall 
Currelly Gallery.
