Becoming a Member

​How do I become a TAC member?
Artists must go through a jury process to become an Art Center artist.  All artists working in fine arts and fine crafts are eligible.  Fine crafts include such works as ceramics, textiles, jewelry, sculpture, glass, and more.

Type of TCA memberships 
We have two membership programs for our artists.  The first and most beneficial is the FULL GALLERY MEMBERSHIP which includes all benefits including discounts on workshops and events.  Your second choice is an ONLINE ONLY MEMBERSHIP which does not include display space in the gallery in San Marco but does provide you an online presence for your work.
 
How does the gallery work?
Every Art Center member is, involved in the day to day operation of our gallery from curating, to sales, to maintenance.  Active participation by all members is essential to the success to our gallery.  Members are responsible for working in the gallery according to their member contracts.  Members handle inquiries, sales transactions, and general daily tasks.
