Each Additional Member – $ 90.00 (as of August 1, 2012)
Your company may become a Corporate Member if two or more people from your company join. The first member from your company to join will sign up as the Corporate Member and will be required to renew at the full member rate each year in order for additional employees to receive the discounted rate. For that reason, it is recommended that your Corporate Member be your agency owner, president, creative director or CEO. When the Corporate Member has paid their dues in full, they will receive a coupon code good for one year that they can distribute to their employees to receive the discounted rate.
STUDENT – $ 25.00
Full-time students who attend a local college or university that does not have its own AAF College Chapter, can join AAF-Suncoast at the discounted student rate.
Note: Ringling College of Art and Design DOES have an AAF College Chapter. Ringling College students wishing to join that chapter should contact Vivian Owen at education@aafsuncoast.com.
