2009 Workshop Payment Structure
Until this year, we have been able to make nearly 100 percent of our programs tuition-free. We do this out of our belief and commitment to making a place for everyone, regardless of means, and through the generosity of donors and foundations who make this possible. As we all know, the funding climate in the current economic times is causing change across the board. We will continue to fully fund all fellowships to our Whole Thinking Retreats. In addition, we are offering a suite of workshops for which we will charge a modest tuition, on a sliding scale based on your organization’s budget (please see below for details). We encourage everyone to pay the full fee if possible. At Knoll Farm, we will cover the cost of your lodging and meals at no extra charge. If the workshop is held away from Knoll Farm, there may be an additional charge for room and board. Please be in touch with any questions.
