Director's Council

The Director's Council was formed in 1985 to assist the Museum in the area of acquisitions. Council members enjoy a varied program of special events, and a portion of the Council's annual membership dues are donated to an acquisitions fund. The culmination of the season is a Purchase Meeting, at which Council members purchase a work of art for the Modern's permanent collection. We provide an ambitious, creative approach to understanding collecting in today's art market. Special events and programs exclusively for the Director's Council begin each fall.
