Become a Friend

Be a part of the arts in your community.

Lighthouse Friends make a vital difference.

Lighthouse enriches the lives of our local community through shared cultural experiences. All of the proceeds from Lighthouse Friends help us to deliver an exciting and diverse artistic programme, provide opportunities for everyone to participate in the arts and to maintain our building – providing a dynamic, world-class cultural facility for Poole, Dorset and the South West.

As a thank you for your generous support, we offer all of our Lighthouse Friends some great benefits.

You can waive booking fees and get priority access to selected shows. Plus, you can get closer to the action behind the scenes with invites to Friends’ events and a quarterly Friends’ newsletter. You’ll also get a 10% discount at our bars and in the Beacon Café!*
