Membership

Your pARTnership is like a personal donation which supports MCA’s work while giving you access to the resources we have available for our members.

As Ocala/Marion County’s lead arts agency, we cordially invite you to join our efforts to help Ocala become one of the best cities for the arts. We consider our members champions of the Arts and would love to add your name to the growing list of those supporting our mission to champion, convene, and create opportunities for artists and nonprofit arts organizations.

PARTnerships afford us the ability to provide advocacy, programs, services, and funding that supports the arts in Ocala/Marion County and helps build the capacity of individual artists and arts, cultural, scientific, and historical non-profit organizations.

Members receive a weekly e-newsletter highlighting upcoming MCA events and community arts events, invitations to Gallery events, and discounts to our special events. Artist pARTnerships also includes invitations to workshops, exhibit opportunities, and an online portal.

Please join today! PARTnership is for one year from the day you join. Once you join, the MCA team will send a welcome letter and a pARTnership card good for one year. Artist members and business members will receive the same plus a login to establish an online portal on mcaocala.com. Renewal letters are sent the month before pARTnership is to end.
