While some workshops are able to be offered for free, when more supplies must be purchased we need to implement a fee to offset some of the cost. We never make a profit on our workshops and fees are just to help with some of the expense of offering these opportunities.
The Hilltop Arts Collective always strives to provide accessible artistic experiences to our community. If you'd like to attend this workshop but need financial assistance please email engagement@hilltoparts.org and we'll be happy to help!
