Flexible Payment Policy

Everyone should have access to creative tools to fight oppression.

The Forum Project has given workshop and course scholarships and reduced rates worth multiple thousands of dollars to educators, advocates, artists and organizers who are working to make a difference in the world, and we need your help to keep it up! Make a gift to support our flexible payment policy. Any amount will help!

About the Flexible Payment Policy

We at The Forum Project believe strongly in the power of Theatre of the Oppressed to transform individuals and society.  The people who can most utilize its tools are those who often, as a result of societal oppression, are unable to afford substantive training. Trainings are few, often extremely pricey, or limited to students in high academic institutions.  We seek to make these tools available to people who need them—people who are doing good work!  Because of this we work hard to assure that no one is turned away for lack of ability to pay to help ensure greater access to creative tools for education and social justice. Payment options include:

  • Paypal
  • Master Card or Visa via Eventbrite
  • Check
  • Cash

Flexible payment options include:

  • Payment by installment
  • Sliding scale reduced fee
  • Service donation
  • Bartering
  • Full scholarship

When registering for a workshop, please select the Sliding Scale or Scholarship/Service Donation option.  We will be in communication with you to establish a plan that works for you.

Refunds

It is our policy not to process refunds for cancellations less than 48 hour prior to the start of a workshop. Because many of our workshops fill to capacity, any person who registers fills a spot that could be occupied by someone else. Even if a registrant is unable to attend, their registration still prohibits another person from attending.

We understand emergencies happen, and will be happy to credit your payment to another workshop in the future.
