Get Involved with the Artisans Cooperative

Cooperatives are democratic businesses that can compete in this hard world because of our special advantage: people power. Rather than relying on venture capital or investors who would own and control our cooperative business, we instead rely on each other. In the cooperative spirit of self-help and self-reliance, we need you to lift the cooperative off the ground. In this survey, we list “teams” and open “jobs” that need help. This is an all-volunteer effort until we get liftoff. If you have skills or interest in any of these, please indicate your interest. This form is not a firm commitment: the team leader will follow up with you to discuss more information and options. Learn more about our team and volunteer program. If you’d like to discuss with us first, contact us anytime at [email protected] or join our Discord server for more conversation.
