MEMBERSHIP APPLICATION:

We are not an invitation only club but we do look to our members to recommend and vouch for intriguing thinkers, doers, and creators who would bring value to the UP community. Whether you know a member or not, we value your interest so please fill out our application form so we can learn a bit more about you. This is not like applying to college, but it does require some reflection and thought. We've tested the fast and the slow, the completion time is 8-20mins, not bad for something that could completely up your world.

You will hear often that diversity guides us at all touch points. Age is a critical to expressing a truly intergenerational exchange.

There are many social clubs and communities in NY, what attracted you to UP?

What are you hoping to get from the UP community?

We are a highly participatory community. In what ways are you most eager and best suited to be involved? (e.g., connector, investor, speaker, member sponsor etc.)

ABOUT YOU

A few of these questions were derived from a 19th century parlor game popularized by Marcel Proust and his friends. They believed that an individual’s answers reveal their true inner nature. This may or may not be true, but we still love reading your answers.

What are your most valued skills? (or super powers if you prefer)

Can you write poetry? scale buildings? Teach yoga? Build viking ships? Recite the constitution?

What is your profession and industry?

Which living person do you most admire?

Don't worry if you don't choose a relative, we won't say a word.

What do you consider your greatest accomplishments to date?

Sure throw in a couple of work projects, but also tell us about your personal victories. Like overcoming a fear of clowns, taking a year off to care for your mother, leaving your job and traveling the world, learning to say no, etc.

If you could be any historical or fictitious character, who would it be and why?

I would be Macguyver because I love mullets, pocketed vests, and solving problems with whatever is at arms reach.

What is your purpose?

Don't stress out. Most people have a hard time with this, us included. Your purpose can be as simple as making it to my bed each night, as magnanimous as solving world hunger, or as immediate as finishing the end of this sentence. No judgments we just want you to think about it.

Freestyle

We've covered a lot here but you are a unique individual. Anything else you want to share? Anyone you think we have to meet? Did you write us a haiku?

Do you have any questions for us?
