President’s Circle members also enjoy the same benefits as Friend’s Circle members.

* Limited quantity based on company’s needs. Contributions are tax deductible to the extent that tangible benefits are not received in return.

** If you receive a tangible benefit, the Museum will tell you the value and whether it’s substantial enough that it must be deducted from your contribution. Multiple gifts within your membership year are combined and qualify you for the highest donor privileges offered. Double your support! Check with your business or personnel office to see if your employer has a matching gift program.
