Levels & Benefits
The DMA appreciates the tens of thousands of members who support our mission. We look forward to continuing to build stronger relationships with each of you through the customizable Partners program. The program is designed to create personalized levels of engagement with patrons along the giving spectrum by supporting their individual interests.
On January 21, 2013, we transitioned all members into our new Partners program. Details of the new levels and benefits are outlined below. In addition to retaining some of the most preferred benefits, the program adds new dimensions of access and experience, some of which overlap with awards for especially engaged DMA Friends to encourage dialogue between the two groups.
All DMA Partners receive
- Free parking in the Museum’s underground garage (during Museum hours, based on availability)
- Free admission for four per day to ticketed special exhibitions
- Reciprocal admission to hundreds of art and history museums across North America
