Membership Benefits
Membership at The Noguchi Museum is about sharing an admiration for Isamu Noguchi’s work and a dedication to his legacy. The commitment and generosity from our community of members provides critical funding to preserve our collection, and to present new exhibitions and public programs. Most importantly, members play a vital role in securing the future of the Museum for many years to come.
For more information or to purchase a gift membership, contact membership@noguchi.org or 718.204.7088 ext 238.
The Noguchi Museum’s membership program is for individuals interested in supporting the Museum. Member discounts are not transferable, and are for personal, noncommercial use only. We do not have a trade program for Akari light sculptures, and do not extend the membership discount on Akari for professional or client projects or to resell. If the Museum feels that any member’s orders are not for personal use, we reserve the right to cancel and refund memberships. The Noguchi Museum is the North American distributor of Akari (U.S., Canada, and Mexico), and cannot ship Akari outside of North America. Furniture, limited edition artworks, and Vitra products are excluded from the member discount.
