Corporate Members

What is Founding Corporate Membership?

Founding Corporate Membership recognizes businesses that join Memphis Art Museum as it opens its new downtown home. It pairs year-round benefits for your employees and their families with recognition for your company’s support of the museum.

Membership can include employee and family passes, team tours, invitations to private events and discounts on hosting your own event at the museum. Benefits vary by membership level and can be tailored to your organization, whether you want to plan an afternoon with colleagues or give employees more ways to enjoy the museum outside work.

Your Support Matters

20,000 Children

A museum visit helps children connect classroom learning to real objects, stories, and creative experiences. Seeing art in person builds curiosity, visual literacy, and confidence as students practice looking closely, asking questions, and sharing ideas.

Living & Aging Well

Museum visits support lifelong learning, social connection, and personal reflection for older adults. Engaging with art can stimulate memory, invite conversation, and create meaningful moments of discovery, creativity, and belonging.

A Place for Families

The museum gives families a shared space to discover, talk, and learn across generations. Art sparks conversation in a way that feels natural and memorable, helping families build curiosity, connection, and new ways of seeing the world together.

Invest in Your Team

Give your employees and their families a year of art and experiences to enjoy together, with museum benefits that extend beyond the workday.
