Membership
Membership enables the museum to bring excellence in arts programming to our region for all to share.
Members are people who have been inspired by our museum exhibitions and educational programs, who are passionate about art, and who wish to support the teaching mission of the museum. Your support directly influences the shaping of the next generation of art leaders, artists, and art lovers.
Membership supports teaching with art at Williams, including exhibitions, education programs, and our collection. Your support of our programming enables us to reach the Williams community, local schools, Berkshire residents, and Alumni, including national and international affiliates.
Members that join at the Fellows level can enjoy our travel program.
