Yes, your Membership gift is completely tax deductible.

Please know that no goods or services will be offered in consideration for this gift.  Therefore, the entire gift may be considered a charitable contribution, subject to other provisions of the law. 

Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts is a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization. Our EIN is 13-1847137.

Members at all levels receive advance access to Choose-What-You-Pay tickets via Member Pre-sales.

Pre-sales occur several times throughout the year, usually following seasonal programming announcements. For the latest information on upcoming Member Pre-sales, please reference your Monthly Member E-Newsletter. Pre-sale dates are also published on our website.

As long as you have an active Membership, your Pre-Sale code will arrive in your email inbox on the morning of each Member Pre-Sale. If you do not receive your code, please contact the Membership team.

Your Member ID card is your Fast Track Pass!

This pass gives you priority access to a wide variety of free, Lincoln Center Presents events offered at the David Rubenstein Atrium throughout the year, as well as hundreds of events in additional venues during Summer for the City. Simply present your Member ID card at the entrance to the “Fast Track” line when you arrive at your selected performance.

While your Fast Track Pass gives you access to the priority line, entry is not guaranteed; should the venue reach capacity, you will be given priority entry as space becomes available. We recommend that you arrive at least 30 minutes before the event, and priority admission will be honored up until 10 minutes before the start time. Please check the event’s dedicated web page to confirm if Fast Track is available for the performance you’d like to attend.

*Your Member ID card/Fast Track Pass gets you and one guest access to the Fast Track line. For Kids, Teens, and Families events, your Fast Track Pass is good for two adults and two children.

At the $240 level and up, Members enjoy access to insider events like Open Rehearsals, Behind-the-Scenes Campus Tours, and Pre-Show Receptions.

You will receive invitations to these events via email, so please be sure the contact information associated with your Membership is currently up to date. Your contact information can be updated directly in your online account, under “Account Settings.”

Lincoln Center Patrons at the Platinum ($10,000) level and up enjoy access to Lincoln Center Concierge services, which includes ticketing support for performances at our resident organizations on campus. Let us help you plan your perfect visit to Lincoln Center!

For more information, please contact Alexandria Reffie, Associate Director of Annual Giving at [email protected].
