Membership

Love what the American Museum of Ceramic Art is doing? Join or renew your membership today and continue your support of the only museum on the West Coast dedicated exclusively to ceramic art.

As a non-profit institution we depend upon the generous contributions of donors like you to support a place where the love of ceramics can be taught and shared. Your thoughtful gift will provide children and adults the opportunity to discover the fascinating world of clay and to learn through hands-on experiences. In addition to being tax deductible, your donation (individual or corporate) will provide membership benefits at various levels; however, the primary benefit is the benefit your membership affords to others.

AMOCA now has reciprocal membership to over 600 museums through the North American Reciprocal Program (NARM). The North American Reciprocal Museum program is an association that offers members who have donated $100 dollars and up, the same benefits at over 350 participating museums. If you become a Cobalt member or above at AMOCA, you receive these benefits below!

• Free/member admission at all times during museum hours.
• The same discount on purchases made on the premises of concert and lecture tickets, as those offered members of that museum.
• The same discount on purchases made on the premises in the gift stores as those offered members of that museum.*
