Gem City GuildOne Guild. Two Paths to Belonging.
Community Membership welcomes those who believe in the work. Professional Membership creates meaningful visibility, connection, and opportunity for those who build through their profession, craft, business, or organization.
Choose Your Path
Both paths are real Guild memberships. Professional dues reflect professional representation and benefits—not human worth.
Community Membership
Free always
For neighbors, supporters, fans, volunteers, and friends who believe in stronger creative communities.
Individual Professional
$99
$74 for one full year
For an individual artist, creative, builder, entrepreneur, or professional joining under their own name.
Small Organization
$249
$224 for one full year
For a business, band, nonprofit, venue, team, or organization generally representing 2–10 people.
Organization sizes are practical guidelines, not rigid employee counts. Owners, employees, regular contractors, volunteers, members, and locations may all help determine the appropriate level.
Professional Membership Benefits
Membership is designed to help trusted professionals become more visible, more connected, and better equipped to contribute.
A public directory listing that helps people discover your work, services, experience, and professional identity.
Build trusted relationships with artists, venues, businesses, organizations, and fellow professionals across the Guild.
Be considered when the Guild receives an inquiry or opportunity that matches your work, availability, and qualifications.
Access eligible workshops, educational programs, professional development, and Builder’s Academy opportunities.
Receive member rates or discounts for designated Guild programs, events, resources, and participating member offers.
Be considered for opportunities to teach, speak, mentor, collaborate, or contribute professional knowledge.
Participate in eligible projects, partnerships, events, and service opportunities throughout the Guild.
Be considered for appropriate features, interviews, stories, and editorial recognition across Guild publications and media.
Additional Professional Memberships
Institutional Professional Membership is intended for qualifying large government, military, educational, or public institutions. Administration will help determine the most appropriate level.
Why Organization Membership?
Two individual memberships represent two individual people. A Small Organization Membership recognizes and promotes the organization itself—its name, identity, work, and collective presence.
That distinction matters when you are building awareness for a business, band, venue, nonprofit, or team.
