How to Become a Member

There are different individual membership options that vary by length (1, 2, 4 and 6 years) and type (full or reduced). The longer you join for the bigger the discount.

Also to save money, reduced options are recommended. Reduced memberships provide the same benefits as full memberships except that full members receive a subscription to the print version of the Journal of Cultural Economics. Those on reduced memberships receive complimentary e-access to the journal. 

Membership is on a rolling basis. For example, if you take out a 2-year membership on 15 September 2023, the expiry date would be 15 September 2025.

Prices are expressed in US Dollars.

When you join or renew your membership you should receive a confirmation email from the association immediately. If you do not receive an email from the ACEI please contact the Executive Secretary-Treasurer.
