The basis of the Sweetwater Print Cooperative is the full time membership. This core membership provides the officers of the organization and makes collective decisions at monthly meetings. The core membership is responsible for the cleaning the space, maintaining the operation of the studio, management of the gallery exhibitions, staffing ArtWalk openings, supervising use of the equipment, and all other details involved in running a studio arts organization.
Core members pay monthly dues and have 24/7 access to the space. It is through the dues paid by core members that the budgetary obligations of the cooperative are met.
