New Membership Levels & Benefits – Effective February 3
Pittsburgh Botanic Garden is ushering in an exciting new era for its membership program, with a range of new levels and benefits designed to make the Garden even more accessible and enjoyable for a wider community. As the Garden continues to grow and introduce new garden displays, exhibits, programs, and events, the updated membership options reflect this evolution. With new tiers like Access and Friends + Family memberships, the Garden aims to provide more opportunities for people to enjoy the beauty of nature while supporting this beloved local institution. These changes ensure that the Garden remains a vibrant space for all to explore and enjoy.
Updated Membership Benefits
Effective February 3
For existing members, there’s good news! If you renew or join before February 3, you can lock in the current membership prices. After that date, the updated membership levels, pricing and benefits will take effect. Existing members will not see any changes to their renewal fees until their current membership expires, but members enrolled in auto-renew will be renewed at the updated pricing unless they contact the Membership office before the deadline. The new benefits include special perks like Member Mornings, in which members will be able to visit from 8:00 – 9:00am on the second Friday of the month. Member Mornings will last from June – October.
As the Garden celebrates its 10th year of welcoming visitors, this year promises to be packed with new experiences for members. Highlights include a 10th Anniversary Celebration on April 4, member-only Garden Discovery Days, and Member Appreciation Week (May 13 – 16). Members also receive special early access to view the upcoming installation Elevated Reflection by Patrick Shearn of Poetic Kinetics, and special member-only activities related to the exhibition. Elevated Reflection opens May 22, but members get a sneak peek of the pieces on May 21, before the exhibition is unveiled to the general public. Members also enjoy discounted tickets for Dazzling Nights and extra savings on holiday shopping and seasonal Artisan Markets.
Whether you’re bringing friends and family for a relaxing visit, taking part in exclusive events, or enjoying new member-only activities, there’s something for everyone in the updated membership offerings at Pittsburgh Botanic Garden!
