MEMBERSHIP

At the Durham Art Guild, we showcase local artists, connect and build community, and create opportunities. DAG membership is a great way for artists and art enthusiasts to tap into those valuable resources and our annual programming. Review the different levels of annual membership below to find one that fits you best.

Please note, DAG membership is open to all artists and art enthusiasts (not just Durham residents) and we strive to make membership accessible and inclusive by providing discounted student level memberships and membership scholarship options.
