Join or Donate to the AGS

We invite your paid membership and active participation in the American Guitar Society. This insures that we continue to thrive. We cannot exist without your help in defraying the cost of insurance, concert expenses, rent, scholarships, honoraria, refreshments, postage, printing and internet fees. (Our officers and directors serve without pay. We are cheerful volunteers.)

In return for your membership, you receive a number of benefits:

  1. Special ticket pricing for our concert series. Free attendance at occasional master classes.

  2. The monthly Newsletter and Calendar are sent to you via email.

  3. Our meetings allow you to meet people who are interested in the classical guitar. This is a great place to share your knowledge and learn from others.

  4. Our meetings provide a venue for you to perform for others. Except for those appearing at a meeting for the first time, regular performers are encouraged to become AGS members.

The activities of the American Guitar Society are funded through donations for membership and scholarships. Thank you for your support!
