I have been doing this for a couple of years now through the Scottsdale Center
for the Arts and also the Phoenix Art Museum as well as some college lecturing.
Also, our PAM has a costume institute - so that small group is always happy for
a lecture or demonstration. My suggestion is to contact a local museum, art
center, or college and offer up your services. Offer a topic to them and
solicit ideas...they are thrilled whenever I do something.
I should note, I've only been paid once for doing this, and I think it worked
out to less than $5.00 an hour, but it is SO much fun!
