Membership

Stay Curious with a JCHS Membership!

After just a few museum visits or program registrations, your membership pays for itself—while the perks extend throughout the year.


A JCHS membership is more than access; it’s an opportunity to provide vital support for our mission of bringing people together to share, learn, and be inspired by Jefferson County’s art and history.

Join us in this meaningful work.
