New History Center corporate memberships provide businesses with added value and special gift memberships for clients, patrons, or staff. Through History Center gift memberships, you can show your commitment to local history and to your staff and clients with a gift that will keep on giving throughout the year.

The History Center of Lake Forest-Lake Bluff is a vibrant museum campus offering fascinating programs, exhibits and tours year-round. Our archives tell the stories of Lake Forest and Lake Bluff residents, business owners, educators, and change makers who have called this wonderful city home. A corporate membership would give you—and the people to whom you choose to give a History Center membership—unique access to special programs, events, and valuable museum member-only perks.

Silver Patron: $500 with a gift pack of 5 individual memberships
