For Full Member and Auction House Applicants:

The Board of Directors will review your application, contact your references, and consider any comments from the ATADA Membership making a final decision to accept or reject your application.

During the review process, you may not make use of the ATADA Logo or make any claims to membership in the association.

Once full approval has been obtained, you may apply for ATADA group insurance benefits and a full listing with image will be published in the online Member Directory.

If you prefer to opt out of the online roster. Just let us know and we will remove your name.
