At The Orchard, we offer our workshops on a sliding scale because we believe creating and connecting through art should be accessible to everyone. For our watercolor workshop, the suggested price is $30—but if that’s a stretch, you're welcome to pay what you can. If you're able to give more, your contribution helps support others in our community. For example, someone might pay $15, while another might offer $40 to help cover the difference. Every bit helps us keep creativity flowing for all.
