Spectacular Gifts That Don’t Need Shipping!

If you’ve f’d around and waited too long to get those special people in your life a gift, we might not be able to ship anything else in time for the holidays…but we offer experiences that don’t need shipping!

It’s weird – it’s these last minute gifts that might turn out to be the most meaningful. For someone who might’ve grown up listing to Martin playing drums with PiL, Killing Joke, Pigface, Ministry, or even NiN, it’s quite a wild thing to have Martin’s drum track to play along to. And, similarly for the tours, the experience of being around all of the items in the Museum, listening to Martin’s stories and listening to unreleased music down in the studio has been described as many people’s favorite ever museum experience. Although these are last minute gifts, they’re not thoughtless or meaningless.

Martin Atkins Custom Drum Tracks (currently $250 off it’s regular price!) – as Martin says, “your music may still suck, but the drums will sound fantastic!” Your track can be up to 5 minutes long, and you can credit Martin on your release!

Airbnb $500 Booking Discount

Gift someone a $500 discount on a PPIM Airbnb Booking! The apartment is full of authentic ephemera, art pieces, specially curated vinyl, cassettes, books, and totally vibed design making this part of Chicago’s Industrial history. Set in Bridgeport (96/100 walking score) – it’s a perfect place for a getaway, or even a recharging stay-cation!

Ultra VIP Museum Tours (a completely customizable Museum-takeover) can be gifted to folks for groups up to 8 people, OR the alternatively, the less customizable Private VIP Museum Tours.

Or, if private tours aren’t what you’re looking for, you can gift tickets to a public (mis)Guided Tour! After purchase, a discount code will be shared with you by a team member that will be valid for any upcoming (mis)Guided Tours at the Museum!

Additionally, you can purchase Virtual Gift Cards in the form of $25, $50, or $100 for use on Martin’s Big Cartel Store. You’ll get a confirmation from our team in time for the holiday!
