Thank you to the Creative Jam Foundation for Flexible Ticket Tiers!
Creativity should be within reach for everyone! We offer four ticket options for each basket style: Pay-What-You-Can, Slight Break, Regular, and Pay-It-Forward — all include the same instruction, materials, and creative magic. Choose the tier that best fits your budget or your heart; every ticket supports The Creative Jam Foundation’s mission to make creativity accessible for all.
Choose Your Project (Regular ticket price shown):
Every basket is offered on a sliding scale—pay what works for you and help support creative access for others if you’re able.
