Schools Affording 'Ski
It's do-able in a variety of different ways. We've been utilized in grants for many years, and your PTA / PTO often has funds available for visits like ours.
We've also begun offering a couple of methods to "recoup your $$" when presenting residencies with 'Ski:
- Offer a 'Ski concert one evening. We'll include some of the songs we sing with classes as well as some the classes have written. Priced reasonably ($5 each or $10 for a family) this will generate funding for our visit. No charge with residencies - talk to us!
- Memorialize 'Ski's visit for posterity - record all the songs written by classes and put out a CD with original student artwork as a cover. You can make money and memories at the same time! Find out more at our PTA Fundraiser Page.
RATES (mileage may be added for out-of-town gigs):
- Classroom visit (45 min - 1 hour) - $150
- Classroom visit (1 1/2 to 2 hours) - $200
- School Assembly - $350
- One Day Residen-'Skis* - $750
- Two-Day Residen-'Skis* - $1350
- Three-Day Residen-'Skis* - $2000
- Week of 'Ski* - $3100
*Your normal school day filled with 'Ski workshops and / or lectures and /or assembly. We need lunch and bathroom breaks.
We can sometimes adjust fees for you if you..
- Find us more work in your area
- Provide housing
- Beg and plead...
Basically, we love to play for people and to present these workshops. If you're having funding difficulties or have creative ideas about our pay, let us know.
