In order to survive in this increasingly scary climate for independent media companies, we rely on the support of the members of The Polyester Dollhouse to invest in the supportive, collaborative and inclusive environment we’ve spent the past decade cultivating.
We use the money we raise through your contributions to keep our digital outputs running, including interviews with our fave artists, activists and creatives, deep dive essays into digital culture, free community events and more! All money raised through membership goes directly towards our contributors - funding writers fees, shoot production, and more.
Every time someone signs up to one of the below tiers, a Polyester team member gets her wings. We’ve also thrown in a 30 day trial membership for new sign ups so you can test it all out for free before you commit.
Find out more about what we have to offer our very gorgeous members below.
