Further details
The membership year corresponds to the calender year. Regardless of the point in time that you join, the full contribution is always due: it will not be reduced proportionally. However, during the final two months (November/December) of each year, there is a special offer for new Friends, Sponsors & Patrons members: if you pay the annual contribution for the next calender year in advance, then we will give you these two months for free and you can immediately enjoy all of your advantages!
Free admission is granted from the point in time when the annual contribution is paid
Your status as a Friend, Sponsor & Patron is valid for the calender year and can be cancelled until 1 December. Otherwise, it will be renewed automatically for an additional year.

ART TRIPS
The MKdW art trips are an exclusive offer for our Friends, Sponsors & Patrons. The MKdW team develops and conducts the trips with lots of passion, dedication, and creativity. From the beginning, individual fellow travellers should feel they are in good hands and being personally care for. The destinations of the trips are thematic linked to the focal points of our collection and exhibitions as well as to major international art events. In groups of 18 to 23 participants we travel to cities such as Skagen, Amsterdam, Copenhagen, Oslo, and Venice. The programme also includes day trips. In all cases the MKdW team is responsible for travel management and guide service.
