One of the benefits of becoming a member of the Folger Shakespeare Library is the opportunity to attend special donor events, as well as opening night receptions for our theater productions and exhibitions. Members are welcome to learn more about the Folger's programs and meet the artistic forces behind them.
New members are also invited to a behind-the-scenes look at the Library. This guided group tour includes commentary by experts from the Folger staff and visits areas of the Library, such as the Gail Kern Paster Reading Room, which are normally closed to the public.
Please see either our Friends of the Folger or The Renaissance Circles pages for more information about becoming a Folger Member and a detailed list of the benefits of membership. To become a member now, click here to join online!
