BMA Council

The BMA Council is a distinguished group of Baltimore’s most committed cultural and civic leaders. Some are renowned art collectors. Others are noted philanthropists and corporate leaders. All enjoy a special relationship with The Baltimore Museum of Art.

Members of the BMA Council, through their generous annual gifts, enable the Museum to achieve great things. Its world-famous collection, landmark building, and groundbreaking exhibitions shine even brighter because of Council support.

The benefits of Council Members are many and include private tours, exhibition receptions, intimate dinners—and the satisfaction of strengthening this great cultural treasure.
