WASoc Membership

There are two categories of membership.
Associate members (£12 p.a.) do not exhibit at the summer exhibition.
Anyone can join as an Associate simply by filling in an application form, obtainable from
the Membership Secretary (see below). New members tend to join as Associates and convert to Full Membership when they wish to exhibit.

Full members (£15 p.a.) have the right to exhibit at the summer exhibition.
Applicants for Full Membership are requested to contact the Membership Secretary
to arrange a time to take along three examples of their own original art work,
signed and framed as if for exhibition.
Arrangements are then made for the work to be seen by the adjudication panel.
If it is of a satisfactory standard Full Membership will be offered.

Membership Secretary
Chris Parry 30, Lowther Road, Emmbrook, Wokingham, Berks RG41 1JD.
