It accounts for a significant portion of our annual income and we can’t do what we do without our loyal members! In return, members receive benefits which include discounts on tickets; newsletters and member updates mailed to their homes several times each year; opportunities to attend special “Member Only” concerts; and more! Being a DUES-PAYING MEMBER makes a big difference for Outpost! Whether you are a new or renewing member, your support is so important to us and so appreciated! So, Sign Up Today and start enjoying your benefits while supporting your favorite arts presenter and venue – Outpost, of course!
