Members

Our Members are part of a community that is active, interested, and engaged in the life of the museum. Our members are you.

You may be in Cambridge for a few days a year, or you may be our neighbor. You may be a student or a Harvard alum. You may want a place to go where your grandchildren can make art, or maybe you want a quiet escape.

Whoever you are, we invite you to join us: to support learning, to hear a lecture, to love a painting. Welcome. Our Members make a difference. Membership dues support essential educational and community outreach programs. Members also enjoy many great benefits, including:

New this year is our participation in the North American Reciprocal Museum (NARM) program. As a NARM member, we are proud to support hundreds of museums throughout North America by allowing their upper-level members free admission to the Harvard Art Museum. In return, Harvard Art Museum Members at the Contributing level and above ($250+) enjoy free admission to participating museums. For a list of over 350 participating museums, please click here.

Library Membership Program

Harvard Art Museum is pleased to introduce our new Library Membership Program, which allows public and university libraries to offer their patrons free admission to the Harvard Art Museum.

Patrons of member libraries enjoy free admission to the Harvard Art Museum's collections for one calendar year. Two admission passes are issued to member libraries for each day of the week; one pass is good for one adult admission.

Passes are valid for museum admission only, and cannot be used to obtain discounts in the museum shop or at ticketed events. A calendar of Harvard Art Museum exhibitions and programs, notices of exhibitions, and invitations to special events, lectures, and scholarly symposia will be sent to member libraries throughout the year.

One year of Library Membership is $150.
