Club of 100

Since 1998 the Maritime Museum in Scharloo, with its extensive collection is a household name in Curacao. The museum tells the story of the more than 500 years of Curaçao history.

Unfortunately, due to Covid-19, the number of visitors has declined drastically and with it, the income for the museum. The museum is not subsidized by the government.

Because of its important for the local and international visitors to continue to discover the history of Curaçao, the Maritime Museum decided to create a Club of 100.

The purpose of the Club of 100 is to financially support the Curaçao Maritime Museum. Your support helps sustain the Museum’s extraordinary collection, conservation, and research, enabling visitors to experience the history.
