Circles of Commitment

Circles of Commitment members are among AMOCA’s most generous donors. As patrons of the American Museum of Ceramic Art, they are offered special opportunities to be involved with other donors and to participate meaningfully in the Museum’s future. The Board of Directors is committed to a cultural organization distinguished by excellence, innovation, and a celebration of clay in all its manifestations.

Circle members enjoy a special relationship with AMOCA Executive Director Beth Ann Gerstein and have privileged access to several Museum offerings, activities, and benefits.

Circle members can customize their activities and experiences to suit their own needs and interests. In short, Member Services is prepared to connect Circle members to additional AMOCA services.

For memberships below the $1,000 threshold, please visit the membership page.
