Frequently Asked Questions
What is Art Club?
Art Club is the place to start. For $85 annually, it includes benefits for one named member, with advance event access, museum discounts, and discounted parking. It’s your all-access pass to exhibitions, events, discounts, café perks, and a real role in shaping what happens here. Whether you’re casually curious or totally obsessed, Art Club makes it easier to connect, engage, and belong.
How many people are included in a membership?
Art Club is for one named member. Choose Art Club Passport for benefits covering two named members.
How long do I have to sign up as a Founding Member?
Founding Member status is available to anyone who joins Memphis Art Museum by Oct. 31, 2026. After that date, membership will remain open, but the opportunity to be permanently recognized as a Founding Member will close.
If admission is free for Shelby County residents, why become a member?
Membership gives you more ways to take part. Depending on the option you choose, that may include early event access, museum discounts, reciprocal admission, Collective gatherings, or volunteer opportunities. Membership also helps fund the museum’s exhibitions, education programs, public events, acquisitions, and the daily work that keeps the museum active and open to the community.
What are reciprocal benefits?
The reciprocal benefits through NARM and SERM (included in Art Club Passport) give you free or discounted admission at more than 1,500 participating museums across North America. Benefits vary by institution and may also include member pricing at museum stores or programs. Present your Memphis Art Museum membership card when you visit.
When does Memphis Art Museum open?
Memphis Art Museum opens its new riverfront campus on December 6, 2026.
