Our Sliding Scale Pricing
We want our art classes to be open to everyone, regardless of income. We use a sliding scale model so you can pay what feels honest and doable for your current financial situation. No proof of income or explanation is needed—name the price that fits your life.
The current price is $20 for the day or $50 for the month, if you choose to pay full price.
For the Sliding Scale Payment, the suggested starting point is $5, but you are invited to pay less or more as you are able. To take advantage of this payment option, simply let one of our friendly staff know when you drop off your child for class, and we can take care of your payment on the day of at the VAC.
