Membership Dues Policy

Annual Durham Savoyards Ltd. Membership Dues

Membership dues are intended to provide the year-round funding in support of our mission. Dues contribute to annual expenses such as mailings, publicity, social outreach, warehouse storage fees, and set building tools. Our dues continue to be among the lowest of all arts and music producing membership organizations in our area.
Annual membership dues are payable at any time and cover the fiscal year from September 1 through August 31st.

Dues must be paid separately from any donation for tax and accounting purposes.

Dues must be paid in order to vote at the annual meeting.

Everyone who is required to sign the “Artist Agreement” must be a dues-paying member (paid by January 31st for spring productions). Those required to sign the “Orchestra” or “Topsy-Turvy” agreements are welcome and encouraged to become dues-paying members of the organization.
