Can a museum become a member of CODART?
As a museum, you can be listed on the CODART directory of museums with Dutch and Flemish art on this website if you care for a collection with a significant share of paintings, drawings, prints, sculptures and/or applied arts originating in the Low Countries. Although CODART is not restricted to “old” art, in practice it focuses on art from the 14th to the 19th centuries. This follows the profile of most museum collections, which have galleries and specialized curators for Dutch and Flemish art of this period but not for later ones. As a museum with CODART members on staff you can also pay a voluntary contribution to CODART. Museums supporting CODART with 1.000 euro or more will be mentioned as Maecenas on the CODART website and in the Courant. See CODART Friends.
Can one become affiliated to CODART without being a full or associate member?
In 2006 a foundation called Friends of CODART was begun. Any individual or institution who is interested in CODART and would like to support our work can become a friend, donor, Maecenas, secret admirer or corporate sponsor. Check the next questions or see the webpage CODART Friends.
