Donations and legacy giving
Donations and legacy giving to Lumière

Building together: from 50 to 100 years of Lumière
This year, Lumière celebrates its 50th anniversary—a moment to reflect on all that has been built and to look ahead to what lies ahead. Our ambition is clear: to carry Lumière forward into the future.
With your support, we invest in:
- film programming with depth and quality;
- educational programmes for children and young people;
- an accessible cultural meeting place for everyone;
- new initiatives, creators, and stories.
Together, we continue to build—on the journey from 50 to 100 years of Lumière.
Donating: making an immediate impact
One-time or recurring donations
A donation is a contribution you make during your lifetime, either as a one-off gift or on a regular basis. Would you like to support us structurally? With a recurring donation of at least five years, your contribution is fully tax-deductible. As Lumière holds a cultural ANBI status, you may additionally increase your gift by 25%, allowing you to benefit from extra tax advantages.
Why donate?
- You directly contribute to a vibrant film culture in your local region
- You introduce children to exceptional cinema
- You help keep Lumière accessible to a wide audience

Legacy giving: leaving something lasting
Would you like to continue supporting film, culture, and education in the future? You can choose to include Lumière in your will.
With a legacy gift, you make a lasting contribution to:
- new generations of film audiences;
- cultural development in the region;
- a place where people continue to come together around film and stories.
How does legacy giving work?
You can include Lumière in your will as:
- a bequest (leaving a specific sum of money)
- a (co-)beneficiary
A notary can help you to arrange this carefully and properly.
