We are a co-op so that every work we create together can have collective ownership while also allowing us to track revenue transparently. Our legal structure is the backbone which allows everyone to be paid fairly and openly. Anyone who participates in camp and creates music has the opportunity to join Amerge as a member-owner, meaning you get a vote in the use of funds and the operation of the co-op.
