QUESTIONS ABOUT MONEY?
All of our workshops are on a sliding scale. That means we ask people to pay according to their ability. We generally recommend an amount based on your income.
If you can afford more, please pay more to assist others with less to attend. If you can only afford less, do not let money stop you from coming. You can contact our office for work exchange options, scholarships and ideas for funding sources.
