Stay connected with the Hood Museum – It's free!

Friends of the Hood Museum of Art

Friends of the Hood is a dynamic community of alumni, friends, and neighbors energized by a shared passion for art and the Museum's mission. It's free to join and open to all who want to stay connected to the Hood Museum's exhibitions, programs, and news.

As a Friend, you will:

  • Receive Hood Happenings, our monthly e-newsletter with updates and inside stories;
  • Enjoy the Hood Quarterly magazine, published each season;
  • Be invited to special events and programs designed exclusively for our Friends; and
  • Connect with fellow art lovers in the Dartmouth and local communities. 

While membership is free, Friends are encouraged to support the Museum with an annual gift to the Friends of the Hood Museum of Art Fund. Your contribution helps sustain the Museum's exhibitions, educational initiatives, and operations — all while enriching the cultural life of Dartmouth and beyond. Each gift is fully tax-deductible.

Join the Friends of the Hood Museum of Art today—stay inspired, stay connected, and help us bring the world of art to life for everyone.
