Membership

Membership must be purchased before April 15 of a given year to be eligible for the Festival benefits for that year’s Festival in June. e.g. If a membership is purchased May 1, 2025, you will receive Festival benefits for the 2026 imagineNATIVE Film + Media Arts Festival in June 2026.

All donations and membership purchases will get a tax receipt delivered to the email address that was provided.

1) You will receive a complimentary 10-ticket package to the Festival, which allows you to either use the 10 tickets yourself, or share the Festival experience by distributing them among friends and family.

2) You will receive early bird access to booking tickets for Festival screenings. Members get the privilege of purchasing and booking their tickets before the general public, guaranteeing your seat at popular screenings.

3) You will receive invitations to attend select Industry Days events, such as panels on various industry topics, masterclasses by filmmakers or industry professionals, and keynotes by artists.

imagineNATIVE receives many invitations to special film programming events throughout the year. Members will be put on a priority list to receive tickets to these exciting events when these opportunities arise.

imagineNATIVE presents many year-round screenings, and members will receive early notice of ticket availability.

Memberships are non-refundable. You may cancel monthly payments during the year, but will lose the benefits for any unpaid parts of the remaining year or upcoming Festival. Membership must be active during the Festival in order to receive Festival benefits.

Members will receive an exclusive discount code that can be applied to any imagineNATIVE merchandise in the imagineNATIVE Store.

If you find yourself unable to attend any in-person events, you have the flexibility to transfer your ticket to a friend or family member, ensuring that your Festival tickets don’t go to waste.

Once you decide which Membership Tier you would like to join, our Membership interface Elevent offers you two pricing options, select the option labeled “Monthly Installments.”

Your membership lasts one year from the date you sign up. We’ll send you reminders as your renewal date approaches, ensuring you continue to enjoy the benefits for the upcoming Festival.
