Many of the museums in Washington, DC have them - the 1869 Society at the
Corcoran Gallery of Art, the Contemporaries at the Phillips Collection, and
the Smithsonian Young Benefactors. The Zoo and the Ballet also have a young
benefactor category.

The Metropolitan Museum of Art has the Apollo Circle, the Whitney has the
contemporaries, and I believe various other museums also have young
professional categories.

Interesting....please post replies to the list. 

Melissa,  what museums have you found that have "young professional" groups
and membership categories...I really like the idea.

Thanks,
