Community Membership

Join our community! This summer, Open Signal launches a new membership program that includes absolutely everyone.

The minimum contribution to become a community member is $1, which gets you free access to our state-of-the-art media equipment and production studios, special events and more.

To sign up, visit our front desk during open hours or make a contribution of at least $5 online.

This program will not only strengthen our community and deepen your experience as a community member, but it will also help diversify our funding streams, ensuring that our resources will be around to serve Portland for decades to come.
