Join/Renew Now

The Witte Society is a young at heart adult membership group of the Witte Museum, whose purpose is to expand the Witte Museum Family to include members from all areas of San Antonio and South Texas. Through special events, programs, parties and receptions, this vibrant and exciting group of young adults will be enlightened, entertained and educated while providing much appreciated support for the museum.

The Witte Society meets three to four times a year for fun events, such as cocktail receptions, family picnics, and luncheons (see calendar below). Attendance for Witte Society members is either free, or in some cases, deeply discounted compared to guest fees paid by non-members. You will receive all the benefits of being a member of the Witte Museum and exclusive benefits such as discount reservations to the Witte Game Dinner.

The Witte Society Steering Committee has planned several unique events for the coming year. They would welcome your help on any of several committees, which offer various ways to become more involved with the Society. For more information on the Witte Society, please call Tisha Cortines, Development Coordinator, at 210.357.1922 or contact by email at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots.
