Membership FAQ

1. What is the "Free Single-Day Class Pass" included with Cook and Executive Chef Memberships? 
Single-Day Class Passes allow members to take a free cooking class at our 18th Street Kitchen. You can choose from the various events available on our calendar. New members will receive a discount code via email within a few days of purchasing their membership. This code can be used to redeem a class on our website at checkout.

2. How does the student/senior membership discount work?
Students and seniors are eligible for a $20 discount on any membership tier purchase (Individual, Cook, or Executive Chef). Eligible folks can enter the coupon SRSTU23 during checkout to receive $20 off the price of membership. For annual membership renewals, students and seniors will be required to present identification to verify their eligibility for the continued discount on their membership.

3. I’m a current member — what happens to my existing membership?
Existing members will retain their active membership until the expiration date listed on their membership card. Upon renewal, they can select from the current membership tiers (Individual, Cook, or Executive Chef). All members with an active membership card, regardless of when their membership was purchased, will be invited to member events and will receive our new quarterly membership newsletter. 

4. What is the membership newsletter?

It features the latest updates and information about upcoming member events, and includes behind-the-scenes stories featuring our staff, beloved 18th Street Kitchen chefs, and community members.
