What it costs
Three memberships. One price we can publish today.
Community is free and always will be. The monthly figure for the two paid memberships is not published right now, and new memberships are paused, so nothing here is on sale today. Saying so is better than sending you looking.
Every membership below is read out of the plan records the checkout itself charges against. Where a figure is missing, that is what the cell says.
If the price does not work for your family, say exactly that. A scholarship fund is built into the membership model. Email hello@gonexgen.org, or tell any staff member. "The price does not work for us" is a complete request. You do not need to show income to start.

Homebase is separate from these memberships. It is a Monday-to-Friday homeschool study hall with its own application and its own tuition. $4,500 per child, per year, at $450 a month. First and last month are due at sign-up. It is not part of Community, Family or Family+. It works the other way round: Homebase tuition includes Family+ membership for your whole household while the place is live, so you also get Friday Nights, Saturday Sessions, workshops and the studios at no extra cost. Lunch is the one thing tuition does not cover: $7 a day per child, billed as a flat $140 a month, and only if you want it.
One household, one price
Up to five people, one monthly price.
Family and Family+ cover up to five people in your household, for one price. No per-child fees inside that. Bigger household? Talk to us; we will sort it out rather than turn you away.
Ask about your householdWhy membership exists
Memberships aren’t fees. They’re how we build this together.
We would rather explain the economics than hide them. Membership is what turns an unpredictable year into a plannable one.
Or give as a founding donorIt keeps the lights on, predictably
A building needs money every month, from the day it opens. Not just when an event sells. Membership is what lets us plan a term instead of a weekend.
It pays the people, not the paperwork
Mentors, instructors and the creators who bring programs here get paid. When a member gets a discount, it comes out of our side. Never out of what the creator was promised.
It keeps the door open for everyone else
Membership subsidises the free tier and the Access Fund. Families who pay monthly are, very directly, the reason Friday Nights can stay free.
NEXGEN Access Fund
Need help with the cost? Talk to us.
A scholarship fund is built into the membership model. Email hello@gonexgen.org, or tell any staff member. "The price does not work for us" is a complete request. You do not need to show income to start.
We agree the support privately. After that it applies on its own. Nothing is worked out at the front desk, and nobody nearby can tell.
The other side of membership
Have something worth teaching?
Members pay less for creator-led programs. The creator is paid the same either way. The discount comes out of NEXGEN’s share, never theirs. Bring us a program. We handle the space, the sign-ups, the payments and the paperwork.

Membership FAQ
Still deciding? Come see the space in person, no pressure. Cancellations, pausing, scholarships and what costs extra are all written out on the membership policies page.
Ask for a visitNo. NEXGEN is open to the community. Friday Nights, Family Sundays and Wellness need nothing at all. No membership, no account. Most other programs ask for a free NEXGEN account so we know who is in the room. Community is that free account: make a household, add your people, RSVP and register, and pay only for the things that cost money. Plenty of families never move past it, and that is fine.
Community is free, and it always will be. The monthly price of Family and Family+ is not published on this page right now, and new memberships are paused, so there is nothing to buy today. The table near the top of this page says exactly that for each plan rather than leaving you to guess. Program prices are a separate thing and they are all still published: every program page carries its own.
Family and Family+ each cover up to five people in your household, adults and children alike. If your household is larger, get in touch. We have not set a price for extra members yet. We would rather agree it with you than surprise you.
NEXGEN Core programs, the weekly rhythm of the place, plus the standard Friday Night meal. Partner and creator programs are half price rather than free, and special programs like trips and camps are never automatically included. The table near the top of this page lists the same thing plan by plan, read out of the plan records themselves.
It works the other way round. Homebase is a separate Monday-to-Friday homeschool study hall with its own application and its own tuition. That is $4,500 per child, per year, at $450 a month. It is not part of Community, Family or Family+. But Homebase tuition includes Family+ membership for your whole household for as long as the place is live, at no extra cost. Lunch is the one thing tuition does not cover: $7 a day per child, billed as a flat $140 a month, and only if you want it.
Yes. Friday Nights are free to everyone, and Community households can register for anything they are eligible for at the public price. Paid tiers change what you pay and how early you can register, not whether you are welcome.
A scholarship fund is built into the membership model. Email hello@gonexgen.org, or tell any staff member. "The price does not work for us" is a complete request. You do not need to show income to start.
Yes. Monthly billing, no contract. Moving up or down takes effect at your next cycle, and cancelling stops the next charge rather than clawing back the current one.
Yes, and we would rather you did. Friday Nights and Family Sundays are free, take no membership and no account, and you can reserve a place in about a minute. If you would rather see the building quietly first, ask for a look around and we will walk you through it, at 6 Arc Place, Staten Island.
Families, ages 4 and up, across seven stages: Bloom (4–6), Kids (7–10), Tweens (11–13), Teens (14–17), Stewards (18–29), Adults (30–59), Seniors (60+). It is built for Muslim families and open to every family that shares the values.
No. NEXGEN is Muslim-rooted and open to all. Our values show through character and how we treat each other, never through gatekeeping.
Every staff member and volunteer carries a background-check record with the date it cleared and the date it expires, so a lapsed check is visible rather than forgotten. Only the people you name can collect your child, and you can revoke that at any time. Everyone entering is checked in at the front desk. The safety page sets out what the system actually enforces, point by point.
Some of it is free with no membership at all: Friday Nights, Family Sundays and open workshops. Beyond that there is a free Community tier and two family plans, each covering up to five people in your household for one flat monthly price, with no per-child fee inside that. Bigger household? Talk to us rather than assuming the answer is no. Current prices are on the membership page.
Nine of them: Pathfinders, Homebase, Studios, Wellness, Friday Nights, Family Sundays, Saturday Sessions, Workshops & Events, and Mentor Conversations, spanning character, media, fitness, weekday academics and mentorship.
