Many ways to support
Whether you're making a donation, becoming a member, or joining leadership, there's a way to support your museum from big to small.
From membership and giving circles to business partnerships and support groups, there are many ways to help us bring art, learning, and connection to more people across Memphis.
How Your Support Helps

Bring the world to Memphis
Memphis Art Museum holds more than 10,000 works of art spanning 5,000 years of human creativity. The museum brings nationally and internationally significant art, artists, and ideas to Memphis, while keeping that work grounded in the people and stories of this city.

Inspire the next generation
Each year, more than 20,000 school-aged children visit the museum. For many students, a museum tour is a first chance to stand in front of original works of art, ask questions, and connect classroom learning to something real.

Keep art within reach
The museum serves 125,000 visitors each year, including students, families, artists, older adults, and neighbors from across the region. Your support helps keep the museum active, welcoming, and open to the community it serves.

Bring people together
From artist talks and hands-on workshops to community days and family programs, the museum offers hundreds of opportunities each year to gather, learn, and create. Your gift helps make those experiences possible for more people across Memphis.
