How much do the courses cost?Pricing is determined by how long a project is expected to take and how much materials/instructions/resource guide costs are. All projects are intended to teach new techniques and methods while enjoying one another’s company. Completing a project is not mandatory but should be possible for most participants. A typical project will meet 1 hour a week for 8 weeks. That includes 6 weeks of guided instruction and 2 weeks for makeups, all with the company of your fellow miniaturists. Every 6 months there will be a free week so you can bring projects you would like to complete with the group. Group sizes will be limited to no more than 8 people and participation is $160.00 per person. There may be future projects that will only be 4-week programs. These will be smaller or less complicated projects. These projects will follow a similar registration schedule as listed above. Group Participation will be $80.00. All project participation fees are based off of a $15.00 per hour rate.
