Photo Workshop and Tour Sponsors

General Sponsorship:

Examples of sponsorship:

Cash funding - Cash covers things like administration, special needs, tuition and much more.

Equipment:  Because of the wide array of workshops we perform we are in constant need of all types of cameras, tripods, flashes and more.  The equipment is used to teach about and as loaners for students who don't have equipment yet.  Because of the diversity of our workshops and community involvement, we are in need of all types of cameras and formats as well as heavy duty tripods.

Discounts:  discounts for our workshop participants helps them to some degree..

     Benefits of General Sponsorship are many:

• You receive a graphic link to your business on our sponsorship page and rotate through our workshop and tour pages
• You rotate into our feature sponsors section and remain there a minimum of four consecutive weeks.  Because we limit the number of general sponsors we partner with, this happens several times per year.
• A graphic link is included in the Wolf Creek Art Gallery for a minimum of four weeks.  The length of time or click through's depend on the sponsorship you provide.
• Students/Participants are encouraged to use your services in our workshops and tours.

Examples of Specific Sponsorship:

• Same as above
• Location to hold workshops:  Maybe you are an Art Gallery or any other business that wants to support a workshop... you provide the space and we bring the people.  This alone is worth any other sponsorship you provide!
• Sponsor a student:  We offer many community and specialized workshops that some may not be able to attend without help (Boy Scouts, YMCA, etc.)

We are open to all kinds of ideas.  Our goal is quality workshops that encourage pro and beginning photographers to grow and continue in their photographic endeavors.

Benefits of Specific Workshops and Tours Sponsorship:

• You have better control over what you are sponsoring.
• As a local business, you are encouraging participants to use your services.  In the case of Art Galleries or others who display the participants work, you are encouraging people to come to your establishment.  You might consider an Open House (Meet and Greet function).
• You will receive a graphic link for your business to be included in the specific workshop or tour columns.
• You will receive a graphic link on the specific workshop or tour you are sponsoring.
• We ensure you are prominently placed within our workshop course work.

Below is a short list of general needs.  This is by no means, all inclusive.  Rather, we choose to allow you to decide how you want and what you want to sponsor without to much of our influence.

1)  New or used equipment (they just need to work properly) Digital and film cameras of all types (SLR's, TLR's, View Cameras...), Lenses and Accessories: Used for hands on learning, loaner equipment (we provide many workshops in the community and churches to people who can't afford their own equipment yet), for deploying with photographers and more.
2)  Sturdy Tripods, flashes and all sorts of other peripheral equipment.
3)  Laptop Computers:  Used for training, deploying and on-sight photography and writing.
4)  Desktop Computer Systems:  Used for photo editing and management.
5)  Money (You knew this was coming):  Used for tuition, training, administration, and much more.

The bottom line:
We can't do this without your help

We use the above equipment to provide hands on learning for students of all ages.  When someone wants to take a workshop but doesn't have a camera yet, we want to loan them one.

We work on several special projects that include input from others.  You can support them individually or generally.

The point is, we provide a lot of workshops in communities around the North-West for organizations like the Boy Scouts, YMCA, churches and a huge array of others.  There are hundreds of people who don't have their equipment yet and want to go through some course work first.  Without your support, we can't help them.

In return for your support, we are open to any suggestions you may have.  We provide numerous links back to your site, we insure students know who is providing the equipment and services they are using and much more.

Thank You In Advance
