Endless Ways to Save on Things You Love
Amanda Shaw | Director of Marketing, ARTA
Planning a vacation or buying a new car? Looking for a fitness
membership or going for a nice dinner out? ARTA can help you save
on these and so much more!
Starting September 1, 2019,
ARTA now offers two great
discount programs for you to take
advantage of. With ARTA members
living across the country, with
a wide age range, equal gender
split, and a variety of interests,
two programs are being offered
in order to best meet the diverse
needs and interests of ARTA
members. These programs are
at no cost to you as an ARTA
member and are designed to offer
you more value for your annual
ARTA membership. The programs
provide discounts and exclusive
offers to help our members achieve
their goal of living an active and
engaged lifestyle in retirement.
Save much more than your
annual membership fee by using
the many discounts from a large
number of partners around the
world, including:
• Travel
• Finance and Insurance
• Health and Wellness
• Food and Drink
• Tickets and Attractions
• Gadgets and Technology

out of Calgary and offers a variety
of Alberta-based discounts.
