Membership FAQ
1. Why are the membership prices changing as of September 2023?
Price increases at 18th St Kitchen reflect recent inflation and our commitment to source good food and pay our talented instructors a fair rate for their knowledge. Also, the updated membership program reflects additional member benefits:

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.
