DPHC Memberships

from $25.00

Please select your preferred Membership level from the drop-down menu below.

Members are a vitally important resource for funding our mission as we collect, preserve, and interpret the history of Des Plaines and its people. Your Membership helps us provide exhibits, educational programs, and research facilities for the community.

NOTE: Beginning September 1, 2025, Membership fees are increasing slightly to help cover rising costs and reduce the impact that the slashing of funds for Museums, Historical Societies, and Humanities Organizations nationwide has had. We are also offering several new membership levels: Couple, Family, Senior Couple, Active Military, and Children under age 10.

Members receive valuable benefits, including free admission to Coffee Talks (non-members pay $10), a copy of our quarterly Cobweb history magazine, discounts in our Gift Shop, free tours of the Kinder House Museum (non-member pay $5), eNewsletters about programs and events, discounts on Research Fees, and reciprocal benefits at other historical museums as part of the Time Travelers program.

Thank you for your support, and for helping us Keep History Alive!
