The Crown Society Travel Program offers our most generous and loyal Crown members art-infused experiences that delight, enrich, and inspire even the most seasoned traveler.
Our trips are about seeing fabulous art, and enjoying the culture of new destinations, while strengthening friendships with fellow Mint supporters and staff.
From Bentonville to Berlin, Dresden to Durham, the 2022–2023 Mint trip roster features special access to museum exhibitions, private collections, and studio visits, which only the Mint can organize with help from curators, artists, and colleagues in the art world. Our guests will stay in the most chic of accommodations and enjoy fabulous group meals with attention paid to every detail.
Note that some trip details may change as we make preparations, and that an e-vite will go out to members of our Crown Society well in advance of each trip.
The Crown Society Travel Program is reserved for members of The Mint Museum Crown Society.
