Become a Friend of the Silk Road Virtual Museum

At the Silk Road Virtual Museum, we honour the spirit of exchange, creativity and curiosity that defined one of history’s most extraordinary networks: the Silk Road.

From the golden courts of ancient Persia to the winding paths of travelling monks and merchants, our exhibitions uncover the richness of East–West encounters — all from the comfort of your screen.

But we can’t do it alone.

We’re inviting you to become a Friend of the Silk Road Virtual Museum — a growing community of supporters who believe in accessible, beautifully curated history for all.

When you become a Friend of the Museum, you will:

  • Be the first to hear about new exhibitions and digital initiatives
  • Receive exclusive behind-the-scenes stories and insights
  • Get early access to special events, digital tours, and more
  • Support educational outreach and future exhibitions that bring the past to life

Whether it’s a one-off gift or a monthly donation, your support makes it all possible. Payments will be made through our delivery partner Blue Ninja, so you may see their name on the payment. Rest assured every cent you donate goes into new museums and resources.  

By becoming a Friend, you're not just supporting a museum — you're helping build a bridge between cultures, generations, and ideas.

Let’s bring history to life. Together.
