Standard Rates:

Rates for other types of organizations are negotiated on a case by case basis.
Occasionally, our hosts are willing to donate their services for appearances with organizations that cannot afford our minimum rate of $45/hour. However, this is considered on a case by case basis and is by no means guaranteed.
Fees for narration services and/or theatrical performances are negotiated on a case by case basis.
Time billed includes the entire length of attendance that is required by the presenting organization (including any rehearsals and concert attendance), and any additional preparation, and is rounded up to the nearest half hour.
We bill any travel beyond the Portland metro area at $1 per mile to cover time and expenses.
