DO YOU NEED TO RENEW YOUR MEMBERSHIP?
...............................................................
We’ve been receiving a number of enquiries lately about when memberships are due to expire. It may seem like a lifetime ago, but the majority of our current members first joined up or last renewed their membership in February 2020.
As a result of the free extensions granted due to the various COVID-19 related shutdowns over the past two years, those memberships are now due to expire this week at the end of our current season on July 23.
So if you’re in this cohort and would like to continue being a part of Australia’s biggest and best film society, be sure to renew your membership at your next screening. Renewing in person is a quick and simple process that takes mere minutes – just remember to bring your membership card with you and a credit or debit card for payment (no surcharges apply).
Alternatively, you can also renew your membership online at www.anufg.org.au/join but please note that online renewals may take 2-3 working days to be processed.
Not sure when your membership expires? Just send us an email to info@anufg.org.au with your membership number (located in the bottom right corner on the back of your card) and we’d be more than happy to let you know.
