The Carytown Merchants Association (CMA) is a group of volunteers that own or manage businesses in Carytown.  Membership to the CMA comes with several networking benefits, including a linked listing on our website, inclusion in promotional posts through our social media accounts as well as cross-promotional opportunities with fellow-CMA members and community sponsors, such as the Richmond Kickers.

 

As a member, you will be invited to attend our monthly membership meetings as well as our social and networking events held bi-monthly.  You will also be invited to participate in beautification projects along Cary Street as well as community outreach events throughout the year.  Monthly member meetings are typically held at 8:30 am on the first Wednesday of each month at Ellwood Thompson's Beet Café.

​

As a final benefit, you will be given a free SPACE at the annual Watermelon Festival.  Your membership dues ($300/year) will cover the cost of one SPACE at the festival (a $400 savings).  

​

Once you join, you'll have access to our Submit Your... page for events and updates as well as the private CMA Forum page.

Should you be interested in joining the CMA, you can do so at any time by sending a request to carytownboard@gmail.com or filling out the form below.  Annual dues will not be requested until the anniversary date of your original payment.
