Círculo
At El Museo, we believe that art thrives in community. Círculo, El Museo’s Patrons Circle, is more than a giving program — it’s a space for connection, conversation, and cultural exchange.
By joining Círculo, you become part of a vibrant group of art lovers, collectors, and cultural change makers who support Latine, Caribbean, and Latin American artists and their global communities — creating new stories and opportunities, together. From private studio visits to intimate dinners, from international art fairs to neighborhood gallery walks — every experience is crafted to spark dialogue and deepen your connection to the art and the people behind it.
You’ll meet the defining artists of our time. See the shows worth crossing continents for. Dine with today’s tastemakers. And learn the context that turns a painting into a revolution.
2026 Círculo events include priority seating at The Rise of the U.S. Latino Art Market: Lessons from Latin America, a conference with Aspen Conexión at El Museo (May 12), a VIP curator-led walkthrough of Frieze New York 2026 (May 15), a curator-guided behind-the-scenes tour of Sophie Rivera: Double Exposures at El Museo del Barrio (June 2), a conversation about contemporary Latin American Art at James Cohan Gallery with advisor Ana Sokoloff (June 10), and an intimate artist dinner in East Hampton at the home of Board Chair Karla Harwich (July 17).
Whether you participate at the Punto level, grow through Línea, or help lead with Forma, your place in the circle will help shape what happens next.
