Membership

Individual/Family Membership

A membership with Bardavon Presents offers exclusive privileges at the Bardavon, UPAC, and other locations where we present live performances.

Members receive advance notice of Bardavon-presented shows plus the opportunity to buy tickets before the general public—this means they have the very first chance to buy the very best seats at the very best prices. In fact, most shows sell out thanks to our members!

Most importantly, membership donations help the Bardavon fulfill its mission to make quality arts performances accessible to everyone—please join or renew today!

We appreciate the continued support!
