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.

Do the maths

Which membership makes sense for your family?

Same math as checkout. Today’s prices. If pay-as-you-go is cheaper, it says so.

How does your family use NEXGEN?

Rough answers are fine. We work out the cheapest option, including staying free.

Best fitEstimated cost per month

At this level of use, paying as you go costs less than a monthly membership. Stay on Community.

  • CommunityRecommended$0$0 pay-as-you-go
  • Family$95$95 membership + $0 usage
  • Family+$195$195 membership + $0 usage

An estimate, not a quote. It uses today’s prices and the same math as checkout. If a price moves, this moves.

NEXGEN Homebase

Separate
Family+
Separate

Priced per programme: NEXGEN Wellness. Each session there has its own price, ages and member benefit: Family and Family+ discounts apply, and the amount is shown on the class itself.

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.

Why 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 donor

It keeps the lights on, predictably

A building open seven days a week 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.

Common questions

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.

Schedule a tour

No. NEXGEN is members-only, but membership starts at $0. Community is a real membership. Make a household, add your people, RSVP and register. You pay only for the things that cost money. Plenty of families never move off it, and that is fine.

Start free. See if it becomes your place.

Make your household in two minutes. You can decide about paying later. We will tell you when it makes sense.
