Gold and Silver Members

Gold and Silver members constitute the top two categories of Istanbul Modern’s Membership Program. In addition to the many benefits enjoyed by their membership category, Gold and Silver members are invited to participate in special events outside the museum.

Gold and Silver members visit renowned collectors, meet at artists’ studios, participate in gallery tours, explore exhibitions held by other art institutions and organizations under the guidance of a curator or expert, receive VIP attendance to international art events, and participate in art trips abroad. Gold members also have the privilege of meeting with the Museum Director for an annual dinner and exhibition tour.
