you belong.

In the spirit of "renewel", the SBMA recently revised all the benefits of membership. New and old members alike will find MORE value for their memberships, and at the same time support the rich programming offered by the SBMA.

Did you know? A membership at the SBMA supports:

* Free admission to quality art exhibitions and the finest permanent collection with artwork by notable local artists and acclaimed national artists.
* Access to quality art education in all media for all ages. SBMA members receive 20% off tuition. In addition, the SBMA awards dozens of scholarships a year to people living on tight budgets.
* Family Day Art Activities with fun for all ages.
* A vibrant downtown community. Cultural events take place year-round. From "Art Beat" to "Meet Me on the Island", the SBMA draws over 50,000 visitors annually. Members receive free tickets to "Meet Me on the Island"!
* Most importantly, your museum membership helps provide cooperative programs with area schools that tour nearly 5,000 students per year, and helps us serve close to 1,000 outreach families a year.

NEW is the South Bend Museum of Art's reciprocal membership program. For all memberships valued over $100, you will be able to visit more than 250 museums across the United States, Canada, Bermuda, and El Salvador for free.
