Serpentine Americas Foundation

Members of Serpentine Americas who contribute at the $10,000 level are invited to enjoy the following exclusive opportunities:

• • Fall and Spring Programs in New York: Dynamic meetings with Serpentine leadership feature presentations by world-renowned and emerging artists. Past guest speakers have included Marina Abramović, Faith Ringgold, and Cecily Brown. Private visits to artists’ studios are frequently offered: members have been invited to artist-led tours at the NYC studios of JR, Hank Willis Thomas, KAWS, and Serpentine Pavilion architect Bjarke Ingels. Programs have also featured private museum exhibition views of Serpentine’s Jennifer Packer show at the Whitney, and the Alex Katz and Hilma af Klint shows at the Guggenheim. Artists frequently join us for tours: we were joined by Lauren Halsey to experience her 2023 rooftop commission at The Met.
