About APAP Membership 

APAP helps performing arts professionals survive and thrive

APAP is more than just our annual conference (APAP|NYC) in January each year - APAP is living more fully in our service mission than ever before and working hard to help the field prepare for a more sustainable, collective future where we all thrive.

Our strength is our membership. Here are the many ways you can survive and thrive through APAP:

  • APAP connects you to your peers through ongoing networking and affinity groups, members-only online events, and online tools.
  • APAP helps you grow by providing funding opportunities, professional development, the APAP Live Performance Calendar and the APAP Job Bank.
  • APAP keeps you informed about APAP programs and services through our bi-weekly membership newsletter and through timely advocacy alerts, urgent field updates, and more.
  • APAP gives you access to the greatest community of performing arts professionals through our annual conference and year-round opportunities.
  • Plus, your membership dues directly underwrite APAP’s work advocating for and supporting the field.
