Ogden Museum

See the South with an Ogden Museum Membership

> Learn about our Corporate Partners Program

All Member donations advance the study and appreciation of art and all things Southern by supporting the museum's exhibitions, outreach programs, publications, research library, archive, orientation theatre, web site, and Goldring-Woldenberg Institute for the Advancement of Southern Art and Culture.

With an Ogden Museum Membership, you can become a Southern art advocate. Prominent Southern artists from the Ogden Museum Collection and its Center for Southern Craft and Design have been selected to produce limited edition works as a special gift to Collectors' Circle Members. As selected artists and media are rotated annually, Collectors' Circle Members will have the unique opportunity to build a diverse private collection of Southern art.

The Kohlmeyer Circle is an auxiliary membership group that was created for the Ogden Museum's younger Southern art and culture enthusiasts. It is a group of young professionals from diverse backrounds dedicated to supporting the mission of the museum.
