Individual artist fee is $60

This fee contributes to the extensive marketing campaign that includes a full-color print map, radio and television ads, social media marketing and a complete 12-month artist page on the new AMR Open Studios Tour website. This fee also helps AMR to meet the requirement to match grant money received from our generous funders.

Please note, if you are sharing a fellow artist's private studio space, each individual artist still pays their own artist fee of $60.00. Also, this fee is not to be considered a charitable donation, rather, a marketing expense.

Lastly, these community sponsorships help keep the registration fees for individual artists affordable.
