NARM & SERM

In June of 2008, SCC joined the North American Reciprocal Museum and Southeastern Reciprocal Museum programs to bring more benefits to our members. With these reciprocal membership opportunities, our members receive member benefits (free admission during regular museum hours and the same discounts on store purchases and concert tickets as those offered to members of that museum) at over 330 museums across the U.S., Canada, and Bermuda, including local museums like the Mattress Factory and nationally known craft organizations including the Museum of Arts and Design in New York and The Mint Museum of Craft and Design in Charlotte.
