About The Jim and Helen Ede Fund

Kettle’s Yard was built by one couple’s extraordinary vision and philanthropy, giving not only their collection of art and objects, but also their home to the University of Cambridge. To continue collaborating and connecting with artists, visitors, students, researchers, local communities and schools, we need to strengthen our foundations. To mark our 70th anniversary in 2027 our aim is to raise £5 million towards the Kettle’s Yard endowment.

All proceeds from the Artists for Kettle’s Yard exhibition will go towards the Jim and Helen Ede Fund.
