Marketing Yourself as a Teaching Artist: “Let’s Talk Money”

Have you ever lost money on a residency or realized you charged way too little for the work you promised? What is your time worth? What are the things you know you must have to provide a successful program? This session will work through how to set fair prices for your teaching artist activities, budget for all parts of a project, and develop ‘what if’ scenarios to make budgeting a useful tool in your teaching artist life.

It will also provide concrete tools and templates for defining roles and diplomatically negotiating to make your programs the best experience possible – for your students and for you.
