    Explore Your Interests

    Affinity groups are a great way for CMA members to dig deeper into art that interests them. Affinity members receive special invitations to lectures and events and enjoy opportunities to spend time together.

    • Design and Art

      Columbia Design League

      CDL members gather to explore how great design affects every facet of our everyday lives and to broaden that understanding through vibrant, insightful programming.

    • Young Professionals

      Contemporaries

      The Contemporaries sets the standard for young professional organizations in Columbia, encouraging both the young and young-at-heart to become involved in a myriad of the museum's cultural activities throughout the year.

    • African American Art

      FAAAC

      Friends of African American Art & Culture offers CMA members a chance to step behind the canvas and discover what compels these artists to create the work they do through talks, studio visits, and more.
