Working Artist Membership FAQ

Active, working artists are eligible for a discounted membership at the Individual level (artist rate of $90) or Dual level (artist rate of $160). To redeem the discount, you must show recent proof of your active, professional art practice by providing links or uploading relevant documents.

Working artists who present verification of their art practice qualify for this discount. Examples include, but are not limited to, painters, illustrators, sculptors, media artists, mixed-media artists, architects, designers, filmmakers, performers, actors, dancers, musicians, vocal artists, and writers. If you have any questions about qualifications, please contact artistmembership@sfmoma.org.

Working artists must present proof of their recent art practice via web form. Acceptable proof includes (but is not limited to) the following, and is at SFMOMA’s sole discretion:

• Link to a website (not a social media page)
• Proof of participation in a show or exhibition (program, link to the show, installation images, or media review/article/press naming the artist)
• Proof of having sold art, designs, or art services (e.g., detailed invoice)
• Representation by a gallery (commercial gallery, co-op, shared art space) with a listing on the gallery’s webpage
• Other proof per SFMOMA approval

A discounted membership at the Individual level (artist rate of $90) or Dual level (artist rate of $160) is available. This is a $40 discount.

You will be eligible for this discount at your next renewal by filling out this web form or by contacting Member Services at membership@sfmoma.org.
