Circle Membership Categories Provide Support for ATA's Mission of Excellence

Circle Memberships include an additional donation in support of ATA exhibitions, publications and programs. In recognition for the valuable role your contribution will play in sustaining our organization and allowing us to grow, we offer all Circle Members complimentary participation in our Tapestry Mentoring Program, an Artist Page and web link, and special recognition in our Annual Member Directory.

  • Studio Circle* only $60 for one year or $110 for two years
  • Curator's Circle* only $125 for one year or $225 for two years
  • Collector's Circle* only $250 for one year or $450 for two years

For information on how to upgrade to Circle Membership, please contact Ellen Ramsey at membership@americantapestryalliance.org.

*An individual's Artist Page will remain on-line as long as that individual is a current ATA member, however one must be at one of the Circle Membership levels to create or update an Artist Page. (Studio, Curator, or Collector's Circle) A mentoring applicant must be a Circle Member at the time of application or pay the established mentoring fee of $30, which will now include an automatic upgrade to Studio Circle membership level. Completion of the mentoring contract proceeds independently of subsequent membership level.
