The best way to join Artist of Tomorrow is by contacting a local chapter near you. Chapters are managed by artists like you who are dedicated to helping others. They are small groups of about 15-25 people, many of whom may share your views and ideals. If you cannot find a chapter near you or you are not sure about joining one, you have the opportunity to start your own or contact our membership director, who will give you more information about joining the organization.

1. Lifelong friendships with fellow artists who respect your identity and views.
   
   Local chapters are a warm environment for you to develop friendships with others who share your views or at least respect you as an individual. These people can help you become a better artist by providing encouragement and feedback as well as offer support in times of need.
2. Access to more resources.
   
   Because of costs incurred when obtaining them, we will lock our most helpful resources for member access only in 2010. Resources are valuable because they provide additional insight on a wide range of art forms and help you improve your technical ability to create art.
3. Special consideration for art-related opportunities.
   
   Because of limited availability, Artist of Tomorrow members will receive special consideration from our affiliates as well as our own publications and venues. This means that members are more likely to be published, accepted for an art exhibit, or offered a contract with a record label than non-members.
4. Discounts on web marketing.
   
   Artist of Tomorrow has partnered with Vertigo Creations, a low-budget web design and marketing company, to offer websites, advertising, and other marketing services to artists who want to promote their work. Members will receive a 10% discount on all services except domain name registration.

Membership in Artist of Tomorrow is absolutely free. We are currently in the process of gathering resources for artists, and until we have a reasonable amount of resources and opportunities available, we will not be charging a membership fee.
