Patron Associate
The highest associate category of the Society. To exercise cultural patronage is to sustain a cause, protect it, and help it endure through time. The Patron Associate joins their name to the continuity of an institution devoted to History, Literature, Sciences, the Arts, and cultural heritage — the highest degree of commitment and recognition among Associates, without admission to the Academic Body.
Associate categories provide cultural participation and institutional support through a distinct relationship without admission to the Academic Body.
