Register for the 15th Annual Members' Night on Friday, October 14

Every year, we invite Academy members behind the scenes for Members' Night. It's your exclusive opportunity to meet our staff, explore our collections and experience the breadth and depth of work that takes place at the Academy. You can chat with our experts, participate in unique activities and enjoy the museum with people who love the natural world as much as you do!

Not a member? Join now to receive your invitation to Members' Night. Academy members receive an entire year of free general admission, access to members-only hours, events and activities, discounts on programming, parking, Academy Shop purchases and more. But membership is more than visitation benefits — your dues make a tangible impact on our community and planet.

If you'd like to learn more about Members' Night, check out the photos and stories from our 14th Annual Members' Night on the Academy Blog. 

In October 2020, we were thrilled to capture the magic of Members’ Night in a week full of virtual adventures. Our members were invited to explore behind-the-scenes, chat with our scientists and participate in activities all from the comfort of home. You can find recordings and downloadable resources on the Members’ Week webpage.
