Membership

Join us as a Member and support the future of your community arts centre for less than £3 per month!      

Being a member of The Poly is about more than getting special rates on tickets. It's about being part of a community that understands the importance of cultural activities in supporting local wellbeing and stimulating artistic and scientific development. Members are the heart of The Poly and have a genuine say in its future direction through the AGM. 

The next few years are going to be challenging, due to the economic downturn and recovering from the effects of the pandemic. As a result, and we need membership to be our bedrock more than ever. The year-round financial support we receive from our members is critical to ensuring The Poly’s mission - to promote the arts, sciences and Cornish history within our community - can continue for generations to come.

Benefits include:

• A membership card, and window sticker on joining.
  
• A 10% discount in Loft Cafe, The Poly's cafe/cocktail bar.
• A free film ticket* to welcome new members to the Poly family
  
• Save at least £1-£2 on film tickets and selected live performance events.
  
• A regular newsletter to keep you in the loop with Poly news.
  
• Fantastic opportunities for artists: showcase and sell your work with free entry to our annual curated art shows: Spring Open (selection process applies), and our long-running members-only Summer Exhibition. Plus, members get discounted hire rates on the Spring Gallery.
  
• An invitation to special events, and a seat and a vote at the AGM.
