Membership Sharing

Membership Sharing allows an active paying member (organizer) to share their membership with up to three of their closest family members and friends who will be able to set up their own personal accounts. The guest member receives an invite by email from the paying member to join and set up their account.

There is no cost to the paying member (organizer) or the guest member. The guest member will receive an invite by email to join Woodworkers Guild of America and once becoming a member, the guest member is granted unlimited access to over 2,000 classes, Live Events, and member discounts.

Who is eligible to receive a shared membership?

A paying member (organizer) can invite up to three family members and friends who do not have a current or expired Woodworkers Guild of America membership.

A guest member will have access to a Shared Membership if the paying member (organizer) has an active paid membership with Woodworkers Guild of America.

If a guest member does not redeem the offer for a free shared membership, the paying member can cancel the invite and send it to another family member or friend.

If I am a guest member, can I purchase items from the Shop to add to my membership?

Yes, guest members can purchase items from the Shop to add to their membership. The guest member will then own any content purchased even if they no longer have a guest membership.

If I am a guest member, can I purchase a paid membership?

Yes, guest members can purchase their own paid membership at any time. The simplest way is to go to the checkout page and log in as a returning customer. It is important to be logged into your account when you purchase, or you will have multiple accounts.
