GLTC Membership

Join our Great Lakes Taiko Center (GLTC) community and share in our GLTC Membership Programs* with our sliding scale membership fee options!

MONTHLY FEE OPTIONS:
In addition to our standard membership fee of $50/month, we offer sliding scale membership fee options as a way for us to support our community drum circle.

GLTC MEMBERSHIP FEE = $50/month
OR choose a sliding scale membership fee option (from $0 to $100+/month):
Pay-As-You-Can option = any amount less than $50/month
(for example, $0, $25, or $45)
Pay-It-Forward option = any amount more than $50/month
(for example, $55, $75, or $100+)

TIP for the OpenCollective.com platform:  Please "Edit" the *optional* tip amount ($0 is also an option) that you would like to contribute to Open Collective (not GLTC) as this amount will be added to your recurring monthly fee payment.

NOTE: You may “sign in” at https://opencollective.com/gltc (upper right link) to change your recurring contribution at any time (cancel your current recurring payment and then start a new monthly membership with contribution and tip amounts of your choosing).

>>> Please contact us at <gltc@greatlakestaiko.org> if you have further questions about joining as a new member or renewing your membership. Thank you for your interest and continuing support!
