The Field Associates are a group of young professionals who support The Field Museum through fundraising and volunteerism.
The Field Associates of The Field Museum is an Annual Fund level designed by and for young professionals who are Field Museum supporters. Our mission is to engage Chicago’s next generation of civic leaders at The Field Museum. Our members are 21 to 40 years old and share a common desire to learn about, support, and advance the Museum's mission: Exploring the Earth and its people.
The Field Associates events are held throughout the year, including meet and greet events with Field scientists about their incredible discoveries, an annual scavenger hunt in the museum with other Field Associates, and a summer gala with music, food, and fireworks. The Field Associates raise funds to support the Museum’s education programs, exhibitions, research and collections.
