Annual Membership
Become a Museum Member and receive invitations to the Wende Salon series and other exclusive Museum events and participate in behind-the-scenes activities and other experiences you can’t find elsewhere.
Museum Membership begins at $1,000 and your tax-deductible* contribution directly supports artifact preservation and innovative programming such as the 2009 Wall Project, as well as more targeted educational activities, including exhibitions, conferences, publications, film series, tours and discussions.

Make an “Historic Gift”
A donation to The Wende Museum is a unique way to honor or remember family, friends and colleagues. And Museum Membership is the perfect giving idea for those on your list you never know what to get.
Make Your Gift Go Farther.....
Contact your employer about their charitable giving policy, which may include matching the charitable contributions of current and retired employees. Matching Donations can range from a percentage of your gift to more than double the amount of your donation! Donations matched by your employer are also applied to your account and may advance you to a higher level of benefits and access. All you have to do is fill out a short form that your employer will supply. Then send it to the Museum at the address below, either with your donation or any time afterwards, and we will do the rest.
