Institutional membership is open to any nonprofit, collection-holding organization. For an annual fee, institutional members of BACC gain access to lower rates for conservation work, priority scheduling, and access to special services.

Special services include on-site inspections; examination, analysis, and treatment of work; environmental surveys; collections care; consultations; emergency response and recovery services; and education (including timely topics like how to best clean and transport art in the time of COVID-19) all while helping to support the center and its work.

Settlement, a mural by Edgar Payne, was treated by BACC and later installed at the Laguna Art Museum, an institutional member museum, for their exhibition California Mexicana: Missions to Murals, 1820 - 1930​. Photo courtesy Laguna Art Museum.
