Becoming a member in Heritage Johnstown gives you year-long admission to our museums and other benefits, all while providing our organization with sustaining support. What’s more, Heritage Johnstown is part of the Reciprocal Organization of Associated Museums (ROAM), which entitles members at the Dual Level or higher to ROAM benefits. You’ll get free admission to more than 300 museums across North America — including several notable institutions in Pittsburgh: the Carnegie Art Museum, the Andy Warhol Museum, the Carnegie Natural History Museum, and the Frick.

Another popular perk of membership is discounts to many of our special events, including a free upgrade to VIP when you buy your 2-day passes to the AmeriServ Flood City Music Festival in person (limits apply — see membership levels for details.)
