What would a monthly membership be worth to you?Nobody is being quoted a price. We are building a financial model and this is the input it needs.

Only free or drop-in sessions Under $25 a month $25 to $50 a month $50 to $75 a month $75 to $100 a month More than $100 a month I would rather pay per class or visit

Want to hear how this turns out?OptionalLeave it blank if you would rather not. Your survey answers count either way. Yes, email me updates on the study and tell me when there is something to show up to. Please answer this one to continue.

How we handle this

Responses are reported as totals and percentages only. Your email is stored separately from your answers, is never sold or rented, and every update we send has an unsubscribe link. You can ask us to delete your response at any time by emailing the Arts Council.

That is the core survey

That's everything we needed. The rest is optional.

Submit now and your response counts in full. Thank you, that is genuinely the part we needed.

If you can spare about three more minutes, nine optional questions follow. They settle the less glamorous but critical things: what hours to open, whether to hire an instructor, whether the gallery gets built at all.
