Membership Benefits

Every personal or household membership receives these exclusive benefits:

Membership Reciprocity in 2024

Members, did you know you can get free access to partner organizations during the year?

Museums and attractions in the Portland metro area and beyond have teamed up to offer a reciprocal membership program. Members of the Portland Attractions Marketing Alliance (PAMA) initiated this special promotion as a way to show appreciation for each attraction’s loyal members, as well as to highlight the important role that cultural attractions play in the community.

With PAMA, participating attractions sponsor a free admission month as part of this popular program. Through the year, membership to one of the organizations is your key to free admission for up to four people during the assigned month.
