TAD Membership Fees

Tennessee Association of Dance is a statewide network of people who are dancers, dance creators, dance teachers, dance leaders, dance activists, dance entrepreneurs, and dance supporters who believe the art form emboldens everybody to connect, build community, and transform the experience of being human. 

Our multiple membership levels provide any Tennessean interested in dance the opportunity to participate in our events and activities, learn more about the artform, find resources, advocate for the arts, and become an active audience member, volunteer or financial supporter.
