Thanks to our members we are able to create spectacular exhibitions, groundbreaking Bickford Theatre events, and innovative educational programs.

There has never been a more exciting time to be part of the Morris Museum family! Join with us today and experience the magic the Museum has to offer—from our exhibitions and collections to our special events and programming—all the while knowing that your support is making an enormous difference.

At the heart of the Morris Museum’s mission is the preservation of historically significant artifacts so that future generations have the opportunity to experience, study and learn from them.

All projects are funded at this time.

New Jersey’s only Smithsonian Affiliate and home of the only Smithsonian Spark!Lab in the state, the Morris Museum is poised to leap forward into this exciting new vision. Join the President’s Circle and play a vital role in our transformation.

In 2013 Morris Museum Trustee Austin “Slim” Bush left the Museum a truly amazing gift: a secure and optimistic future. His bequest, one of the largest in the Museum’s 106 year history, has been transformative. This generosity is, to this day, allowing the Museum to invest in a number of vital projects including capital improvements, gallery renovation, and general operations of our exhibitions and programs.
