Hello Jessica,



	This question came up on a different listserv a month or so ago. I'd recommend contacting Kevin Fox who is the Curator of the Kingsville Historical Park Museum (519 733 2803 / 519 995 3392 - [log in to unmask] / [log in to unmask]) as I'm sure got a number of excellent responses. Good luck!

Subject: [MUSEUM-L] Membership Programs at Free Museums



I am the new Director at a small county history museum. We do not charge admission to our Museum. We're beginning to look at revamping our Membership Program, as the numbers have gone down consistently over the last five years. I would love to hear from institutions that are free to all and have a successful membership program. What perks does your program offer? What do you entice people with without the 'free admission for a year' hook that is so standard for memberships?



Thanks in advance for any advice you can offer!
