The Armory Avant-Garde: Young Membership Program
The Avant-Garde is a group of forward-thinking individuals in their 20s to 40s. An Avant-Garde membership offers a deeper, more intimate connection to the unique and creative concepts behind the Armory’s mission.
Avant-Garde members can look forward to exclusive access to tickets for dedicated Avant-Garde Night performances, complimentary pre-show/post-show events, opening night visual arts previews, and curated events planned for Avant-Garde members around New York City.
For more information, please contact Chiara Bosco at (212) 933-5824 or cbosco@armoryonpark.org for more information.
