ASSOCIATE + ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP
Are you in the 50 mile radius?
In 1919 the WAA Founders envisioned two levels of membership in their constitution, Associate or Active. These levels are still in use today. Members are an integral part of the organization as patrons, community members, exhibiting artists, volunteers and serving on the Board of Directors.
MEMBERSHIP & GOVERNANCE
All members have a right to participate in the governance of the WAA and may exercise their right to vote and run for the Board of Directors. The Board of Directors is comprised of both Associate and Active seats.
ASSOCIATE MEMBERSHIP
All members enter the Woodstock Artists Association as Associate members. Associate members receive WAAM benefits of membership and have the opportunity to vote for and fill Associate seats on the Board of Directors.
ACTIVE MEMBERSHIP
Associate members of the WAAM may apply for or earn Active status in any of the 3 ways outlined below. Active members are artists who must reside within a 50 mile radius of Woodstock. Active members receive WAAM benefits of membership and have the opportunity to vote for and fill Active seats on the Board of Directors. Active members may participate in exhibitions reserved for Active members.
3 ways to become an Active member:
- Apply to Active Member Jurying twice annually (see dates below)
- An artist whose work has been juried into four shows within a two year period.
- An artist has been selected for a solo exhibition.
