Membership Matters

Think back to the moment you decided to become an NCMA member. Maybe it was when you enjoyed an exhibition or lecture or after you had an invigorating visit to the Park. Maybe it was because of the range of benefits. Or perhaps it came from a desire to support an important cultural resource, a place that enriches our community and state. Whatever the reason, many of you describe being at the Museum as akin to feeling at home—a place where you belong. We’d like to remind you that not only do members benefit from having the NCMA in their lives but your membership also benefits the Museum.

The NCMA's mission is to steward and share the people’s art collection and inspire creativity by connecting our diverse communities to cultural and natural resources. We develop programming, plan exhibitions, and consider new acquisitions around those guiding principles.

You, our members, are the lifeblood of the Museum, helping us to realize our mission by connecting to people throughout the Triangle and across the state. You serve as ambassadors, reaching out to friends, neighbors, and colleagues about what’s happening at the Museum. So, whether you are able to visit frequently or on occasion, remember that your membership allows us to create a place of belonging and a home for incredible works for art for all to enjoy.
