Adult Programs with River Arts!

Tuition Pricing Model

As part of our mission for Arts for Everyone, River Arts offers flexibility in pricing for each and every artist. As we strive to make our adult programming possible for as many students as possible, we ask those with the ability to do so to consider paying more tuition to help those with fewer economic opportunities - please know your tuition will always be going to our mission to continue the arts for everyone.

“PAy What YOu Can” - ADDITIONAL TUITION ASSISTANCE IS AVAILABLE

Please email info@riverartsvt.org if you would like to request additional tuition assistance. We never turn a student away based on inability to pay.
