How can I purchase a membership?
Memberships can be purchased online, at the Information Desk in the museum lobby, or by calling the Membership Office at 212-547-0707.
For how long is my membership valid?
Memberships are valid for one year from the end of the month in which you joined (excluding any temporary promotions). For instance, if you joined on July 15, 2024, your membership would be valid until July 31, 2025.
Can I share my membership?
If you purchase a membership that allows for more than one person, such as a Dual membership ($130), you may indicate the name for the second card or have it say "Guest of..." and provide your guest with the second card. Members are welcome to share a membership, but we ask that all mail be sent to only one address.
Does the Frick offer a student membership?
Yes, $40 student memberships can be purchased on-site at the Information Desk upon presentation of a valid full-time student ID. If renewing or joining by mail, students must include a copy of their valid full-time student ID with their enrollment form or renewal slip.
What will I receive in the mail as a member?
Membership cards and acknowledgment letters are sent in the mail. All members receive the Members’ Magazine. Invitations for special events are sent via email and mail. Members starting at the Sustaining Friend level ($650) will also receive one specially selected exhibition catalogue per year.
If I join at the museum, can my ticket price for the day be applied to the cost of my new membership?
Yes. Ask the representative at the Information Desk how you can apply an admission ticket to the cost of membership.
