Visionary Membership

How do I visit the museum with my membership?

For the smoothest entry and check-in process, we highly recommend that all members reserve entry tickets before visiting the museum. Go to MOPOP.org/Visit, select a date, then login to your account from the top left corner of the screen.

Forgot to reserve your tickets? No problem! Go to the ticketing counter and show a representative your digital membership card or photo ID. They will check you in and get you on your way to enjoying a day at the museum.

Memberships are available for use immediately after purchase with a receipt or photo ID. Please note that guest passes are not available for immediate use as they are sent via email up to seven days after membership purchase.

I have not received my membership card or guest passes yet. What should I do?

If it has been more than seven days, please contact us at Membership@MOPOP.org. You will be asked to confirm your contact information. Your replacement items will be emailed within 24 hours.

Who can be included on my membership?

Individual Membership includes one named individual

Dual Membership includes two named individuals

Family, Producer, and Promoter Memberships include two named adults, and up to five youths ages 5-17

Dual+1 and Family+1 Memberships each include an additional named member

Insider, Creator, and Icon Levels may name 3 adult members on their membership; please contact Advancement@MOPOP.org for assistance

Members must be named at the time of purchase or upon your first visit to the museum

Member names may not be switched out until the next renewal

Membership benefits are for named members only and are not for use by schools or other organizational groups

What is the Plus 1 Pass?

The Plus 1 Pass gives you the option to add one additional member to your Dual or Family Membership. This is perfect for families with nannies or adult children. The $49 pass is limited to one per membership and is not available to add mid-term.

Can I give a membership as a gift?

Yes! Click the “Gift” button under the membership level you would like to give. You will be prompted to enter one recipient’s name and email address. You (purchaser) will receive a PDF voucher with redemption instructions that you can print and gift by hand or simply email to your recipient. Your gift recipient will then present the voucher at any ticketing counter at the museum, where a representative will collect the necessary information (email(s), secondary names, street address, etc.). Digital membership card(s) and guest passes will be emailed to your recipient within seven days.

*IMPORTANT* GIFT MEMBERSHIPS ARE AN ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP THAT IS AVAILABLE TO USE FROM THE MOMENT OF PURCHASE AND EXPIRES 13 MONTHS AFTER PURCHASE.

MOPOP offers digital membership cards for all levels, for your convenience and to reduce our environmental impact . Please keep in mind, member benefits are non-transferable. ID may be required when presenting your digital membership card.

How do I use my digital membership card?

Digital cards function just like plastic. Simply present your digital card and photo ID at the Ticketing Desk to check in. Keep in mind that we always recommend reserving your member tickets at MOPOP.org/Tickets.

What if I prefer a plastic membership card?

Our membership cards have gone fully digital, for the convenience of our guests and staff, and to reduce environmental impact. Your digital membership card is unique to your membership and displays your name, membership level, expiration date, and a barcode for us to scan.
