Membership for businesses is $125 per year and membership for artists is $35 per year. These costs help our all-volunteer board cover our nonprofits basic costs and entitle you to a few benefits:
‍

• Send us news or updates about your business so our volunteers can share it on our social media accounts.
  

• Have your events and sales listed on our website and potentially featured in our newsletter!
  Just log into your account, visit our Events page, and submit your event. We'll use these submissions to help promote your business or art on our social media and to our email list.
  ‍
• If you're a business, you will be able to participate in White Light Night and Hot Art Cool Nights. While those events do have separate fees that cover insurance, police, marketing, and busses, you must be a member to participate or sponsor.
  ‍
• Last, but certainly not least, you help to promote public art and maintain the Mid City Arts + Culture District. To learn more about how to host some of this public art at your business, go here: [insert link here]

That’s easy! If you want to make a general donation to Mid City Merchants, go here: [insert link here]

• If you're a business, make sure you're a current and active member that is logged into their account. From their visit the event page and sign up!
  
  Please keep in mind that registration may not be currently available because it hasn't been opened up yet. Don't worry! Event registration information will become available soon.
  ‍
• Some businesses choose to add event participation at the start of the year when they pay their membership. This way, they can either pay for everything all at once, or even split up their payments over several months.
  If you take advantage of this feature, great! When you go to sign up to participate in the event, it will automatically credit your ticket purchase. If you experience technical difficulties or believe you were improperly charged, please email info@midcityerchants.org

• Mid City Merchants does not place artists, nor do we charge artists to participate!
  ‍
  Individual businesses select to host artists and may or may not charge a small fee, usually between $35 and $75 per spot. In order to find participating businesses so you can ask to set up there, please visit our map of participating businesses on our event page.

• We are always looking for passionate and dedicated people to join our board!
  ‍
  Our organization is run entirely by volunteer board members that are local business owners or artists like yourself. If you think you'd like to be a part of our crew, email info@midcitymerchants.org
  We nominate board members in December and host elections each January.
