Does The Dalí Museum accept Reciprocal Membership (NARM)?

The Dalí Museum participates in the NARM (North American Reciprocal Membership) program, excluding museums within a 50-mile radius of The Dalí. Otherwise, visiting NARM members receive free Gallery Admission for 2 adults and up to 5 children (17 and under) and do not need to make reservations before their visit.

The Dalí Alive 360° experience is a $15 add-on experience for all guests, including NARM members. Visiting NARM members also receive a Museum Store discount as long as they present a current NARM membership card validated with a gold North American Reciprocal sticker or replica imprint of the NARM sticker. Guests are not included unless they present their current membership card validated with the appropriate NARM identification.

What local reciprocal admissions does The Dalí Museum offer?

The Museum’s reciprocal program is a monthly partnership, limited to your Membership level. Members of each participating attraction or museum receive free admission through the reciprocal month only. Additional add-ons or special exhibitions may not be included.
