JOIN US AS A 2026 YOUNG PATRON


MORE THAN A MEMBERSHIP—Young Patrons membership is a year-round program for young professionals under 40. Join us for fun meet-ups like tennis and golf outings for all skill levels, opportunities to give back by volunteering for service days, or shape the future of our work by joining a leadership committee. And as always, SummerStage membership benefits and private mixers during concerts give you VIP access to artists you love and those you will love to discover.

A Young Patrons membership is your passport to iconic New York experiences!
