Registration Fee: $5 paid at the door (cash or check payable to ArtSeed) will give you access to the entire day of dancing, dance instruction seminars, and light refreshments.
Collecting Pledges: Each dancer will ask family and friends to pledge 5 dollars per hour (or whatever they feel comfortable asking) for each hour that he or she dances, or to pledge a single flat donation of any amount. The dancer will collect their sponsor’s related information on the attached document and return it to ArtSeed via email (dance@artseed.org), fax, post, or by bringing it to the event. During the dance-a-thon, the dancer’s time will be clocked and ArtSeed will then redeem the pledges for the appropriate amount by sending your sponsors a description of your success.
