Waitlist note: if you want to register for a program and see that there’s a waitlist we still encourage you to apply! We find that it’s fairly common for individuals and families to sign up in the spring only to have unavoidable conflicts come up in the summer so waitlists see a good deal of movement. Additionally: if, and only if, you’re applying for a program with a waitlist you do not have to send in a deposit to reserve your spot.

Program Fees for the Art of Mentoring are on a SLIDING SCALE.

80 people attend as staff, and 130 people attend as paying participants. That’s a ratio of 3 staff for every 5 participants!
Every member of our staff volunteers some (and in many cases, all) of their time. We strive to compensate them adequately for their gifts and the many years they’ve spent developing their skills as teachers and mentors.
We also will offer over $12,000 in scholarships to at least 30% of our participants this year.

The sliding scale allows us to cover these important costs, but only if enough people pay the “true cost” or “high end” options.
