Pay-What-You-Can Pricing

Illinois Art Station is committed to ensuring that all children, youth, and their families – from all neighborhoods and backgrounds – have access to transformative learning through hands-on experiences in the visual arts regardless of ability to pay. To achieve this access, IAS is now offering a pay-what-you-can model for class and camp registrations.

We know that IAS families who are able to financially support the Illinois Art Station and our programs will do so happily. We also know that our IAS families who require assistance will benefit greatly from a flexible pricing structure. Your tuition—no matter the total—will help cover the costs of expert planning/facilitation, materials, site maintenance, and everything else that makes IAS programming so great. AND, any additional funds will help sponsor the cost of hands-on art engagement for young artists and families who require reduced or free tuition. Thank you in advance for your support and helping make art accessible to all who are drawn to it (pun intended)!

Families with an annual household income less than $36,000 or who qualify for free/reduced lunch should feel welcome to pay less than the recommended amount. Costs of classes and camp vary.
