MOMA MEMBERSHIP INFORMATION

As the founding Director of Education at the Museum of Modern Art, Victor D'Amico's task was to explain "modern" art. His method of educating the public said "to understand art, a person should make art." The process of art making would lead the individual to better appreciate the artwork in the museum gallery.

To reconnect to this idea, The Art Barge is offering Museum of Modern Art member's discounts on classes, programs and events and free admission to The D'Amico Studio and Archive.

Please indicate when you register that you are a MoMA member or click on the logo above to become a NEW member of the Museum of Modern Art.
You will greatly enrich the experience of what you see at MoMA when you create at The Art Barge.
