Being a member of the Ella Sharp Museum of Art & History is more than just free admission and great discounts-it's about belonging to a community that fully values the visual arts and preservation of our shared history. It's about supporting educational programs for students of all ages. It's about protecting the past for the thousands of little third-grade Pioneers that visit each year.

Of course, being a member has its perks. At every level of support, Museum members receive benefits including free, unlimited admission to unticketed events, gift shop discounts, Ella Sharp Museum of Art & History NEWS, and early class enrollments.

Membership at the Ella Sharp Museum of Art & History also provides discounts and benefits at museums and historical societies across the country. To learn more about the North American Reciprocal Museum (NARM) program click here.
