Individuals who are not members of a MAFA-affiliated guild, and interested commercial enterprises, institutions, organizations, and schools are invited to become “associate” members to show their support for MAFA’s goals.

This membership entitles individuals to register for MAFA conferences at the same time and same price as MAFA guild members.  Associate members may attend Representative Assemblies, but are not entitled to a vote.

Associate membership dues for the 2024-2026 membership period are $25.
Young Adult Associate membership dues are FREE for those 25 years old or younger at the time of joining or renewing (with a copy of your ID.)
