Our Tavern Jam workshops, Creative Writing Discussions, Moon Meditations, and Discord server including all its resources, prompts, challenges, motivation, and spaces to share creative work for feedback are FREE SERVICES provided by VGVS. Anyone is welcome to attend free workshops and participate in general server stuff without ever paying a cent! But if you want to help us grow and provide even more artist resources and opportunities for the creative community, you can become a legit Guild Member and receive all the extra benefits that come with that by paying annual dues of just $15 for adults 18+ or $12 for teens 13-17.

Beginning in 2026, we will also be offering an Expert Class Pro Membership for professional creators who want even more benefits and ways to share their creative work! Expert Class Members must be at least 18 years old and pay annual dues of $75.
