Membership in NMA is an important way to keep informed about statewide issues, to support the Nevada museum community, and to network with other Nevada museum professionals.
Benefits include a subscription to our quarterly newsletter and invitations to our annual meeting and professional training workshops. Institutional members also receive a listing and photo on our website every year the membership is paid. NMA members also participate in our NMA Member Courtesy program, enjoying free admission to select NV museums who have chosen to offer free entry to their NV colleagues as a professional courtesy.
