Make something happen here.
If you have something thoughtful to teach, share, or guide, we’d love to hear about it.
We host creative, educational, and community-centered workshops across a wide range of topics. That might include art, craft, movement, wellness, photography, writing, design, or creative business skills.
Workshops should give people an opportunity to participate, connect, make, learn, or experience something new.
Tell us what you have in mind, and we’ll help determine whether Make Well is the right fit.
Step 1
Choose your space.
Not sure which option is right, or want to see the space first? Book a time to meet with our team.
Open Art Studio
Our main workshop space offers plenty of room for tables, materials, and hands-on activities. There is no upfront rental fee. Instead, Make Well and the instructor share the ticket revenue.
Pricing: Revenue share (details below)
Capacity: Varies depending on the format and setup. Most workshops can accommodate up to 30 guests.
Best for: Art workshops, creative classes, educational gatherings, and experiences that need additional space for materials.
Mural Room
A smaller, more intimate space for small-group workshops and gatherings that require less room, less mess, and minimal setup. Open Art Studio access is not included with this rental.
Pricing: $75/hr OR Revenue share (details below)
Capacity: Varies depending on the format and setup. Most classes can accommodate 10-20 people.
Best for: Artist talks, yoga, breath work, sound baths, book clubs, discussions, writing groups, and smaller creative workshops.
Step 2
Pick your pricing model.
There are two ways to host a workshop at Make Well. Select your preference when filling out the interest form below.
Flat Rate Rental
The Mural Room can be rented for $75/hour. With this option, you pay the rental fee and keep 100% of your ticket revenue.
Flat rental is not currently available for the Open Art Studio.
Revenue Share
This option requires no upfront rental cost. You sell tickets using our platform, and the revenue is divided between you and Make Well.
Revenue share is required for workshops held in the Open Art Studio and is also available for workshops in the Mural Room.
| Pricing option | You keep | Make Well keeps |
|---|---|---|
| Non-member, standard | 70% | 30% |
| Member, standard | 80% | 20% |
| Non-member, with marketing | 60% | 40% |
| Member, with marketing | 70% | 30% |
Revenue shares are calculated from net ticket revenue after refunds, sales tax, and payment-processing fees. Instructors are responsible for their own materials unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.

-
We’re open to all kinds of creative, educational, wellness, and community-centered experiences.
Art, craft, photography, writing, movement, design, business skills, sound baths, book clubs, or something we haven’t thought of yet are all welcome.
The best fit is something that invites people to participate, connect, make, learn, or try something new.
-
That depends on the room and pricing model you choose.
Open Art Studio workshops use a revenue share model, so there is no upfront rental cost.
Mural Room workshops can use either revenue share or a flat rental rate of $75/hr.
Make Well members receive a better revenue share rate. You can also add marketing support in exchange for a larger percentage of ticket revenue.
-
Revenue share is based on net ticket revenue after refunds, sales tax, and payment-processing fees have been deducted.
For example, if your workshop brings in $1,000 in ticket sales and $100 goes toward sales tax and processing fees, the net ticket revenue would be $900.
With a standard 70/30 revenue split:
You would receive $630
Make Well would receive $270
Your final share will be based on the option we agree on before your workshop goes live.
-
Nope. Anyone can apply to host a workshop at Make Well.
Members receive a better revenue share rate, but membership is not required.
-
For revenue share workshops, we do. For flat-rate rentals, that part is up to you.
For revenue share events, Make Well will create the registration page, collect payments, and manage the attendee list. Before registration opens, we’ll work with you to confirm the workshop description, ticket price, capacity, and other important details.
If you focus on creating a great workshop, we’ll handle the checkout buttons.
-
Yes. For revenue share bookings, you can add marketing support in exchange for a larger share of ticket revenue.
You’re also welcome to handle your own promotion and keep a larger percentage of ticket sales.
Make Well may still include confirmed workshops in our regular event listings and communications, but ongoing promotional support is not included with the standard revenue share.
-
Start by looking at similar workshops in Salt Lake City and nearby communities. Pay attention to the length, materials included, instructor experience, and overall experience being offered.
Your ticket price should cover your material costs, preparation time, teaching time, and revenue share while still feeling reasonable for your audience.
Not sure where to land? Bring us a few comparable workshops and your estimated costs, and we’ll help you talk through a price that makes sense.
-
We’ll create promotional copy and a graphic in the Make Well style, share your workshop across our social channels and emails three to five times, and continue promoting it as the event gets closer.
We can’t promise a sold-out room, but we can promise thoughtful, consistent promotion.
-
You’re responsible for planning and leading the workshop, providing the necessary materials, communicating your setup needs, arriving with enough time to prepare, and leaving the space clean and organized afterward.
We’ll talk through the timeline, setup, and responsibilities with you before your workshop is officially confirmed.
-
Instructors are responsible for providing all materials and supplies needed for their workshop unless otherwise agreed upon in writing.
Please include any material costs when setting your proposed ticket price. Let us know in advance if you need access to specific equipment, furniture, sinks, storage, or additional setup space.
-
You will be paid as a 1099 independent contractor through Make Well’s online payment portal.
Payment is typically issued within two to three weeks after the workshop. Your payment will reflect your share of net ticket revenue after refunds, sales tax, and payment-processing fees have been deducted.
