MEMBERSHIP LEVELS
Friends ($75—$499)

Friends are invited to social events that have been carefully designed to shed light on the creative process, including private access to working rehearsals and frequent opportunities to meet artists at events. Friends also receive benefits that have been selected to enhance the performance-going experience, such as members-only advance ticket sales, half-price tickets to BAMdialogues, and waived ticket-handling fees.

BAM Patrons ($500—$1,499)
BAM Patrons are provided with exclusive access to a special, reserved allocation of the best seats in the house through BAM Patron Services, a department that provides personal ticket fulfillment and a high level of customer service.

Patron Council  ($1,500—$4,999)
Patron Council members form the core of our family of supporters and receive increased ticket priority as well as tickets to the Next Wave and Spring Galas for no additional charge. The centerpiece of each season, Galas traditionally include a performance, a dinner, and either a pre-performance cocktail reception or a post-performance dessert reception with the cast.

Next Society ($5,000—$49,999)
BAM Membership's flagship program, the Next Society is comprised of passionate individuals in a variety of industries. In addition to increased ticket priority, Next Society members convene at private BAM events that provide exclusive, intimate opportunities to meet the artists and art professionals that help shape the future of performance.

Visionary ($50,000 and above)  
BAM Visionaries are leadership contributors who often support specific programs of their choice. Wherever appropriate, BAM works with these special donors to create customized underwriting, sponsorship, and other opportunities designed to meet their needs and strengthen the organization.
