MEMBERSHIP | November 2024

At the time of writing this blog, we have 10 days to go in October and we need $74,000 in revenue. This is a high goal for us but we are hopeful that our Step-Up mailing will provide the additional revenue support we’re seeking. Also underway are our rejoin and new member campaigns. You may start to see some of our ads promoting membership and gift membership in print and digital media.

Speaking of gift memberships, please consider giving the gift of membership this holiday season. For only $100 you’ll give a year of memorable museum experiences at the four state museums in Santa Fe, seven of the eight historic sites statewide and the Office of Archaeological Studies along with 28 other museums in New Mexico and 1,300+ in North America.

We hosted a Member Morning on October 19 at Coronado Site before the community-wide Fiesta of Cultures. Later this month on Saturday, November 16, we will host a Member Preview for Wired Meanings at the Museum of International Folk Art.

I wanted to also let you know about some exciting tech advancements we’ve recently made. The admissions desk teams are now scanning membership cards for entry so we can learn who is visiting our museums and better communicate to members based on their interests.
Also new, we’ve installed self-serve member kiosks at the Vladem Contemporary Shop and the New Mexico History Museum Shop. There you can renew, make a gift, submit a customer service inquiry or check your membership status.
