Financial Responsibilities & Fees

  • The Workshop host pays a $3,000 deposit to Domegaia to hold the workshop dates. *The full deposit is refunded immediately if Domegaia cancels the workshop for any reason.* 
  • Please be advised that the cost for all tools, materials, and preparations for the workshop build can cost up to $15,000
  • The host pays for all fees related to the transferring of funds for deposits or other monies.
  • The host will process all payments for students’ lodging and meals. 
  • Domegaia has the discretion to appropriate a fee if any of these requirements are not fulfilled by the host. In such a case, a portion of the deposit will be withheld if the host fails to fulfill their responsibilities as listed above.
  • Up to $3000 is refunded to the host at the completion of the workshop based on a 1-10 final evaluation rating of how well the host fulfills their responsibilities. For example, if the host receives a 9 out of 10 score, they receive $2700 of their deposit back.

Important Note:
We do our best to complete a basic Aircrete dome structure during a 10 day workshop. However, there is no guarantee of full completion. Unexpected obstacles like weather conditions, for example, may prevent the dome’s completion. Also, the workshop may not include finished windows, doors, or flooring. The host is responsible for finishing the dome to their liking. Domegaia will provide guidance after the workshop to ensure successful completion of the dome.

Art is love made visible.
