FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
2023 Private Party Pricing $125 for one hour; $100h 2-4 hours; 4 hours or more contact for pricing Travel / Setup / Other Fees Travel fees may apply when the event is more than a 35 minute drive from Shelburne Falls, MA. Generally $25 per Artist, per half hour of travel time. Depending on your event, there may be a charge for outdoor, lengthy, or difficult setup, which is usually $30, but please confirm with Artist prior to event by describing situation in detail. Parking fees incurred by Artist must be paid by client. Any returned check will incur a $30 fee. Any failed electronic transfer will incur a $30 fee. Overtime Any time beyond that which was booked will be billed at a rate of $75 per hour, or $40 per half hour, per Artist, with a full half hour charge being due for each 1-30 minutes of overtime. However, only booked times are guaranteed. Additional time on the day of the event may not be available although Artist will attempt to accommodate requests for additional paid time. An average of 8 - 10 guests can be painted per hour. Please be considerate of the time you book per guest. If you're not sure how long to book for, we are happy to advise you. A $35 booking fee is required to hold the date and will be applied as a credit toward the hourly rate. Your date will not be booked until that non-refundable booking fee is received. A 48 hour cancellation/change notice is required to change the date of the party. If 48 hours notice is given, the booking fee credit will apply to a newly booked party date. If less than 48 hours notice is given, a new booking fee would be required to book another party. The balance of the party fee is due by cash, credit card, debit card, Venmo or PayPal no later than 6:00 am local time on the morning of the party. If the balance of the party fee is not received in one of these methods by that time, the artist will not arrive to paint.
