Adult Class Rate Increase

Dear friends,

This has been a very challenging year for everyone. SMAPA has experienced enormous economic uncertainty that makes it necessary for us to increase our Adult class rates. Starting in January, individual classes will increase from $20 per class to $22 per class. And the discounted rate for 10 classes will increase from $170 to $200.

Current 10 and 20-class cards will be honored at the original rates. This includes any 10-class cards purchased before the increase goes into effect, so feel free to buy one or two now! You will still receive the full number of classes for any class cards purchased in 2020. Log in to your online account to buy a new class card at the $170 rate.

While it is never an easy decision to raise rates, we are hopeful that with your understanding and continued support, this rate increase will help SMAPA survive as a not-for-profit arts organization in Montclair.

If you would like to know how many classes you have left on your current class card, or if you have any other questions or concerns about the rate increase, please email us at info@smapa.org.
