How the 15 mile rule works in North Carolina
NARM does not apply within 15 miles of the institution where you hold your membership, and in a state this shape that matters differently depending on where you joined.
- Cape Fear Museum members lose 1 of the other 19 places in the state to the exclusion, and keep 18.
- The Nasher Museum of Art at Duke University members lose 2 of the other 19 places in the state to the exclusion, and keep 17.
- Asheville Art Museum members keep all 19 of the other places in the state, because nothing else on the list falls inside the radius.
Planning a trip around North Carolina
Charlotte is the busiest single base: 2 of the 20 are within 25 miles of it, so one day out covers 10% of the state list. Another 10 sit more than 100 miles away, and the list spans about 197 miles end to end, so the rest is a second trip rather than a detour.
