We are committed to maintaining equitable access to our programs. While we strive to make all of our programs free of charge, we do not always have the resources to do so. When a program is offered for a fee, those who are able to pay are encouraged to do so, while those who cannot will receive the necessary support. Our goal is to ensure that everyone has the opportunity to participate, regardless of their financial circumstances, while maintaining our commitment to fair wages for artists. Please email maeve.hind@artnotshame.org if cost is a barrier.
