Classroom/Venue Rentals
| Space Rental Security Deposit | If the vendor renting you space in their facility requires that you pay a security deposit in case of any damage done to the space, be sure to include this as a separate cost in your invoice. When your program is over, follow up with SAFA to arrange for the return of any deposit funds |
| Advance Payment by SAFA | SAFA is happy to make payments with a credit card or wire transfer before your program start date for any classroom or venue rentals. We prefer to pay up to 50% as a deposit and the remaining amount after services are rendered. Please send us an invoice to request payment. Second invoice required for final balance payment |
| Rome Center Classroom/Studio Rentals | If your program is located in Rome, you may wish to rent a classroom or studio space in the Rome Center. Consult with your Program Manager to make arrangements for such payments. See Payment Methods for current rates |
| Field Advance | Whenever possible, SAFA prefers to pay for classroom or venue rentals in advance of your program (see above), but in cases where this is not possible, we can arrange for funds to be put in your field advance for such payments |
