Support: Become a Member
Membership
Join a community dedicated to advancing the culture of architecture and urbanism, explore design in the life of New York City and beyond, and engage the critical issues that shape our built environment, our society, and our world
The League’s new, simplified membership structure has taken full effect as of January 1, 2021. We have consolidated the Non-resident, 35 and Under, and Over 35 categories into a single Individual member level, while maintaining our reduced rate for students and recent graduates, seniors, and those with precarious or intermittent income. We have also combined the Contributing and Supporting levels. Scroll down to the menus below to see details about the updated membership categories and join or renew your membership today.
The League’s programs draw audiences from across disciplines, generations, and points of view. Members are architects, artists and designers, urban planners and policy-makers, students and educators, practitioners in related fields, and those in the wider public who seek to enrich their understanding of the built environment. Membership is open to all who are interested in architecture and urbanism.
Members receive a wide range of benefits, including free admission and advance reservations to League lectures, symposia, discussions, and other events; access to members-only programs such as First Friday office visits; and invitations to exhibition previews and receptions.
