Because we are a membership organization, member dollars are the bedrock of our budget. Money from your membership is allocated to artifact acquisition and conservation, educational programming, family days at the Museum, marketing, and public awareness programs.

We also provide funding and consulting services to our branch museums in Elizabeth City (Museum of the Albemarle), Fayetteville (Museum of the Cape Fear), and Old Fort (Mountain Gateway Museum).

Your membership brings special privileges:

  • Discounts and special sale days at the Museum Shop
  • Discounts on history-related trips and tours
  • Special invitations to exhibit openings and events
  • Early sign-up and discounts on summer camps for kids

Learn more about membership categories and privileges, including Benefactor status and the Young Associates group.
