Membership

National Maritime Historical Society members and program participants are a diverse group of individuals interested in the sea and maritime history: merchant mariners, naval architects, ship builders, recreational sailors, historians, educators, students, preservationists, conservationists, industry leaders, members of the sea services, and people from all walks of life interested in history. Our membership forms an active constituency, advocating the recognition of our maritime traditions while working for positive changes for the future.

Most importantly, as an NMHS member, you keep our seafaring heritage alive by supporting valuable educational programs. You are a part of an organization that has helped establish many leading maritime institutions, such as the Council of American Maritime Museums, American Society of Marine Artists, American Ship Trust, and National Maritime Alliance.
