The membership program support our mission while allowing individuals and groups gaining access to a vibrant network of artists, peers, and supporters, as well as programming and opportunities available only to members.
Your membership grants you specific benefits such as access to and discounts on artwork and merchandise; private events, walkthroughs, and studio visits; professional development and advisory sessions; opportunities to connect with exhibiting and alumni artists and curators, and more to come! See below for more information on levels.
Donate to CUE and support authentic and robust opportunities for artists who challenge our collective notion of what’s possible, viable, saleable, proven, or other such indicators of success associated with systems that we all know are far from perfect. The hundreds of shows CUE has presented over the past two decades comprise an extraordinarily diverse community of artists, writers, students, curators, designers, and others from wildly different backgrounds engaged in physical and intellectual work that is varied in medium, process, concept, and so much more.
Your support, at any level, directly funds artist programs, honoraria, and expenses that allow CUE’s opportunities for emerging and underrepresented artists to be unparalleled and exceptionally meaningful to the community we serve.
