For over 25 years the Aurora Museum Foundation has asked for and received community support by means of membership dues, donations, and participation in a variety of programs. Such support is essential for the Aurora History Museum to provide high quality exhibits and educational programming to Aurora and surrounding communities. We are grateful for both, those members who have stayed with us over the years and for the relative newcomers. Their ongoing commitments have provided a base level of support that is necessary for planning and assisting with future programs. We ask that all current Foundation members continue their support if possible, and help recruit friends and neighbors who share the vision of a strong, vital museum organization that will continue to serve the entire Aurora community.

With a membership, you and your family will be entitled to free or discounted costs for all Foundation sponsored events, free subscription to the quarterly newsletter, invitations to special events, access to the Museum's research library and archives (by appointment), discounts at the Museum Store and multiple volunteer opportunities.
