What you get, no matter which tier
Some perks are specific to a level — these come standard the moment you join TAG.
Gallery
Exposure
Your work is seen by everyone who walks into 200 Prince Street — locals, river-town tourists, and buyers alike.
A community of working artists
Critiques, studio time, and everyday conversation with painters, potters, and makers who take the work seriously.
Discounted classes & workshops
Members pay less for the guild's own colored-pencil, plein air, and studio sessions throughout the year.
A hand in a
Main Street landmark
Dues and volunteer hours go straight toward keeping a working gallery alive in downtown Tappahannock.
First word on shows
& open calls
Members hear about new exhibits, juried shows, and sale events before they're posted publicly.
A voice in how
TAG grows
Vote on programming, shows, & guild decisions, your membership has a say, not just a spot on the wall.

Not Sure Which One Fits?
Send a note to the membership committee and someone will help you sort it out — no wrong answer, just different levels of involvement. Tell them how much wall space you're after, how often you can volunteer, and whether you're looking to exhibit or just stay in the loop, and they'll point you to the right tier.
