Questions about Membership[edit]

Do I have to be a member to use the space?[edit]

Anyone can use the space. Most people that come to Noisebridge are not members.

How does one become a member? What is the cost of membership?[edit]

Please check out Membership for instructions on how to become a member.

Do I have to be a member to attend classes or workshops?[edit]

No, classes and workshops are open to everyone. Check out the events page to see upcoming events and classes.

Do I have to be a member to support Noisebridge?[edit]

Not at all! You can sign up to become a Philanthropist, which gives you 24-hour access so long as you pay monthly dues (see below). Lots of people don't want to become full members, which can be a long process to achieve, but they still want to give something to Noisebridge and the community. You can set up a monthly donation for $10/mo $20/mo$40/mo$80/mo or any amount you like.

How can I pay my membership dues or donate?[edit]

You can pay your monthly membership dues in any number of ways, including PayPal (which allows paying from a bank account or credit card), writing a check to "Noisebridge", doing a direct wire transfer or giving cash.

Are membership dues tax deductible?[edit]

It's complicated: maybe, but donations (in excess of dues) are!
