Become a Member

Join the MCA as a member and connect yourself with the best contemporary culture in Chicago. Members are given access that allows them to experience the museum like no other visitor. Free admission, discounts in the MCA Store, and exclusive member previews are only the beginning.

Join today to receive a special members-only totebag designed by Jason Middlebrook, while supplies last.

As a member you will be part of our largest support base and will have many opportunities to connect with other contemporary-culture lovers. Your support also helps bring cutting-edge exhibitions, compelling performances, and dynamic educational programs to you, Chicago, and the world.

If you wish to join or renew by phone, please call Member Services at 312.397.4040.
