Membership

Your membership allows us to provide services that have a direct impact on artists, and to provide programs that create meaningful opportunities for residents and visitors to engage with the arts.

We are accepting memberships for 2021, which will be valid until May 31, 2022. To join or renew electronically, please select the category relevant to you and use the Paypal button to submit a payment and your contact information. Otherwise, please submit a paper copy of the Membership Form along with your cheque made payable to the Prince Edward County Arts Council.

NEW! As we try to better understand the composition of our membership and our local arts community overall, we ask that new and returning artist and gallery/organization members please participate in a confidential and voluntary Survey and Self-Identification Questionnaire. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. The information you provide in this survey helps direct the services we provide for the arts community. Please click here to participate.
