Save the date for our first Member Preview of 2025 featuring Farm to Table: Art, Food, and Identity in the Age of Impressionism and Tennessee Harvest: 1870s–1920s on Thursday, January 30, from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m.

Quarterly on select Sunday mornings, the museum will open two hours early exclusively for members. Enjoy docent-guided tours, and unique and delicious bites and beverages from Café Cheeserie.

Upcoming Member Morning dates: February 2, May 4, August 17, November 16

Member Moments

Throughout the year, we’ve reserved time for you to see exhibitions and enjoy our galleries without the crowds.  

During Member Moments, the first thirty minutes of the day in one gallery will be reserved exclusively for members. It’s a great time to view the featured exhibition at your own pace or enjoying a docent-guided tour.

Upcoming Member Moment dates: March 22, April 12, July 12, October 11, November 29
