MoDA Members
A Museum of Danish America membership is more than a way to support a place you love—it’s a passport to discovery.
On a recent trip to Phoenix, former board member Mike Nielsen and his wife, Karma, decided to visit the Heard Museum. As they approached the admissions desk, they remembered that their Partner level MoDA membership includes access to the North American Reciprocal Museum Association. When they asked if the Heard Museum participated, the answer was a resounding yes. With a quick glance at their MoDA membership card, they were welcomed in—not as visitors, but as members. Admission was waived, and they were greeted with the kind of warmth usually reserved for locals. What began as a simple stop became an unexpectedly memorable experience.
That moment changed how they travel. Since then, Mike and Karma make a point to ask about NARM benefits wherever they go—and it has paid off. From the Harry P. Leu Gardens and the Orange County Regional History Center to Las Vegas favorites like the Atomic Museum and the Neon Museum, their MoDA membership has opened doors across the country—again and again.
When you become a MoDA member at the Partner level, you’re not just joining one museum—you’re unlocking access to hundreds. Your membership connects you to a nationwide network of cultural institutions, where you can explore, learn, and be welcomed as part of a larger community wherever you go.
Carry your membership card. Say yes to spontaneous stops. Turn every trip into an opportunity to discover something new. And if you’re ready to make the most of these benefits, consider upgrading from the Explorer level to the Partner level—because the more you explore, the more your membership gives back.
