The Cummings Davis Society

The Cummings Davis Society is a group of Museum members with a strong interest in American decorative arts. Named after the Concord Antiquarian Society's founding collector, Cummings E. Davis, the Society's dues provide crucial support for new acquisitions for the Museum.

Cummings Davis Society members enjoy decorative arts-oriented lectures, connoisseurship demonstrations, viewings of private collections and other specially arranged day trips. While becoming a member of the Society is a way to support the Museum's collections, it is also a relaxed way to experience the art of collecting with an amicable group of like-minded Museum members and friends.

The Cummings Davis Society yearly dues, which are separate from regular membership and contributions to the Museum's operating funds, are $300 per individual, or $500 per couple. The Museum is extremely grateful for these funds that strengthen and preserve the Museum's distinguished collection for future generations.
