Meeting Suzanne Campbell-Lambert, WAM Member Suzanne Campbell-Lambert has been a member of WAM since 2003, when just out of college, she joined the young art lovers group then called “Friends of Steve.” Now the mother of two children ages 4 and 7, she spends more time playing “find the animals” with them in the galleries than attending cocktail receptions. The Museum, however, remains a central part of her cultural and community life. “I’m very proud that such an incredible museum is here in Worcester,” says Campbell-Lambert. “I love bringing visitors from out of town, or even people who are from here but haven’t been before. The Museum continues to become more and more welcoming. I love showing people that it’s not an imposing place.” She says that one of the best benefits of membership for young families is free admission. “We can go at the kids' pace,” she says. “There’s no pressure and we can stay as long as they want.” On a recent trip to Knights! with a visiting family member and her kids, everyone enjoyed Helmutt’s House, where the beanbag chairs were a big hit. “It’s so important to me to support the Museum,” says CampbellLambert, who has also served a full six-year term on the Museum Council, including a year as Council president. “The Museum is something I want to share with everyone. I want my kids to be able to bring their kids someday.” Purchase your Worcester Art Museum membership online at worcesterart.org/Membership, email membership@worcesterart.org, call 508.793.4300, or at the Museum.
