Membership - Branches and Groups

All members of ATASDA are members of the national organisation and are able to participate in member activities such as attending meetings and enrolling in workshops in all branches and regional groups. In special circumstances there may be restrictions in numbers (for example, in focus groups), or by geographical area (for example, in exhibiting due to policies of a regional gallery).

To participate and contribute in the organisation of a branch (for example, speaking or voting at a branch meeting), the member must first provide a signed application to join the branch. There is no additional membership fee.
